Installing Docker is so easy, and it’s significantly easier than installing individual tools when we’re talking about shared tooling and local development. But hey, you do you!
I'm about to uninstall Docker. I have a 128GB Macbook Air and it's taking up 17 gigs after some light use. I'll be using it from CI instead. I like it but it isn't a no-hassle option. It depends on the project whether it's easier. I prefer to avoid it if I can.
