its heavy running locally if you don't run on a unix machine, even the m1/m2 chips you get performance related configuration can be annoying depending on the usage, its a slow process

@nyx (Rustular DevRel) Would you consider this a bad usage of docker, example: I use docker locally to setup my dbs, etc. When I go to upload in prod, I use a db on railway and redis from railway. I do not containerize my stuff anymore since I just use docker to configure locally since it is easier to get the db service running than installing it. Should I just upload my docker image directly at this point or?

its fine to deploy without docker railway oer example, will wrap the code around a docker image anyway deploying with docker is not necessary, its just a nice thing to be able to deploy in most providers
