That's something I've seen many times said by many people but I don't understand. Your code can be mounted from the host into the container. There's no need to rebuild images with each change. Inside such "development" container some form of watcher/auto-rebuild can run and recompile & restart your program after changes are made in code. Isn't it standard practice?

By definition containers are static. Of course I could use them but it would essentially only add one step into the build process and I would gain absolutely noting from it. And I have no reason to use containers only for the sake of using them.

What about isolation? Of runtime, ports, dependencies?

I already have that. Plus, you might have missed that I am talking about development environment.
