LXC containers on top of Debian in a specific work station just for this. I have one generic container to start everything, and then create specific ones if projects get bigger.

This is by far the best option to isolate and easily create development environments that I found.

I connect to the containers from VS Code running on Mac OS.

Incus is a great way to manage LXC containers, after LXD came under the Canonical umbrella.
