Pick a small bug or feature from the backlog and fix it. First iteration of a fix is probably shoehorned in there, then I try to adapt the fix to the code base. Matching the style and design of the code base is more important than my own preferences.

I’m a learn by doing kind of person.

This is enough for most projects.

I hate when I have to work with non SQL based persistence.

To each their own I guess. 😇

Why not use a compiled language that compiles to fat binaries (rust, go etc)?

I always use Bacon ipsum

We are over 1000 developers and use docker ce just fine. We use a self hosted repository for our images. IT is configuring new computers to use this internal docker repository by default. So new employees don’t even have to know about it to do their first docker build.

We all use Linux on our workstations and laptops. That might make it easier.
