Pros of Devcontainer
Unified Development Environment: By using devcontainers, you can ensure that all developers are developing in the same environment, reducing the occurrence of "it works on my machine" type of issues.
Quick Start: New developers can set up their development environment in a few simple steps, without spending a lot of time on environment configuration.
Isolation: Devcontainers isolate your project from your host operating system, reducing the chance of OS updates or other application installations impacting the development environment.
Cons of Devcontainer
Learning Curve: For developers unfamiliar with Docker and VS Code, using devcontainers may be somewhat complex.
Performance Impact: While usually minimal, programs running inside a devcontainer may be slightly slower than those running directly on the host.
