I'm still a bit befuddled as to why Docker is necessary in this case at all. Python has enough tools for package and dependancy management, if you're wanting to set up a remote machine for personal development, again Docker seems like overkill. I understand and fully accept that it's part of the development ecosystem, and it's good to get and be comfortable with it, but much like the suggestion for VS Code (which I use in my day to day, with many of the extensions mentioned) it seems like overkill for a beginner and overly specific for an intermediate++ developer, who should be more in a camp of "use whatever makes me most productive".
