Elevator Pitch
Ever spent hours setting up a development environment we end up hearing,“But it works on my machine,why not yours”?DevOps and development teams strive for faster iteration and reduced issues. Dev Containers have emerged as a powerful solution to standardize environments and collaborate across teams.
Description
Containers and DevOps have revolutionized software development, enabling faster deployments, improved scalability and enhanced collaboration.
In this presentation, I’ll explore how Dev Containers can boost efficiency and productivity by: 1. What are Containers? Why are containers important in DevOps? 2. Few ways to create Containers. 3. What are Docker Dev Containers? 4. Benefits of Dev Containers. 5. (if time permits) Simple example of setting up a Dev Container and running an application in Dev Container.
Who should attend? Developers looking for stable, efficient development environments. DevOps/Release/Cloud engineers & platform teams seeking consistency and automation. Graduates learning more about DevOps or transitioning their careers.

Notes
This presentation will explore the basic concepts of containers, their role in DevOps practices and the increasing participation of enthusiasts in the field. It highlights the significance of containerized environments, such as Docker Dev Containers in the developer’s world, Docker Compose builds, Azure pipelines. Additionally, the discussion extends to best practices in DevOps, talking about automation, CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure as code using containers and azure pipelines. The presentation can also shed light on the importance of diversity in DevOps and the benefits of inclusive teams. By addressing these critical aspects, this study aims to provide valuable insights into modern development trends and encourage a broader understanding of DevOps and containerization with some simple examples.
