Build and Run Containers in Remote Development Workspaces

Developing applications within remote workspaces has become an essential practice for modern DevOps. GitLab now offers an improved way to build and run containers directly within remote development environments, simplifying workflows and ensuring consistency across teams.

Enhanced Remote Development

With this new capability, developers can seamlessly work with containers in cloud-hosted environments. The integration allows for faster iteration, reduced local resource usage, and eliminates issues that arise from differing local setups.

Key Benefits

  • Consistent development environments across teams
  • Faster feedback loops with containerised testing
  • Reduced local machine resource consumption
  • Seamless integration with GitLab CI/CD pipelines

Getting Started

To begin using containerised remote development, ensure your GitLab instance is configured for remote workspaces. Follow the official documentation to set up your environment, define container specifications, and integrate with your CI/CD processes.

By leveraging this new capability, teams can improve collaboration and efficiency while maintaining a stable and reproducible development environment.
