Don’t use features #1

Closed kurowski closed 4 months ago

kurowski commented 9 months ago

Devcontainer features are intended to add specific functionality to a generic image. Since we have a custom image, we can add any required functionality to the image, removing the need for features and therefore streamlining the process of spinning up a devcontainer.

The downside is that the features are already written and maintained, and fairly generic. Is it worth replacing them with custom setup steps?

myeap2 currently uses three features:

  1. sshd: should be easy to replace
  2. github-cli: also easy?
  3. node: maybe a hassle to get the version we want (as opposed to whatever the base release of debian supports)

down to one feature (sshd) that i think provides actual value, closing this since it's not really worth investigating at this time
