Why we should care about local build times
What is the main activity of developers? Waiting. What sounds like a bad joke is unfortunately not. The reality is that developers always have to wait for things - for example for the local build.
The Cost of long Build Times
Long build times lead to high costs.But how high are the costs exactly?
Why the local development environment should be replaced
Developers work in development environments. This is where they write code, test and debug. In practice, however, there's a problem: the local operation of the software to be developed is costly and the management of dependencies is tedious and maintenance-intensive.

Problems with the local development environment: Is containerisation the solution?
Docker and containers in general have become indispensable in modern software development. Containers are also often used locally to avoid problems with the local development environment and the operation of the software to be developed. However, this brings new challenges. In this blog post we describe why containers are a first step in the right direction, but don’t solve all the problems.
Why CI/CD pipelines can’t replace local software development operations: Managing expectations vs. reality
One of the most complex aspects of development environments is that the software to be developed should itself be part of the development environment. Many companies therefore place high hopes in automated CI/CD pipelines: these enable the software to be developed to be installed on a remote server via an automated process. This often leads to the expectation that running the software to be developed locally will become obsolete. Is this correct?
