Hi.

Can you elaborate a little more on how you use pycharm with docker-compose and what are the advantages? I am new to all this and I have been using Pycharm quite a lot lately but looking at people’s responses above it feels like I am missing something. Why would you need to connect remotely or where/why does docker fit into this? Isn’t is just an IDE that you install to code/debug?

Sorry in advance if these questions sound a little too primitive.

Thanks.

You can have pycharm on your machine but the actual python interpreter and the dependencies are in a docker container. This means that you don't 1) install python and dependencies needed for your project in your machine directly 2) reuse the docker container setup that is used for say ci and even production deployment while you are doing development.
