Network heavyness of product

Hello,

 

My usual workflow is to fire devcontainers with everything I need in order to have the right tools in every development computer used by the team.

What I notice with the vscode for stm32 is that now it is harded to pack the tools prior to using the containers.

Configuring the installed extension is not enough because then when the container runs, every st extension downloads a lot of data from the network.

Working with a lot of containers and in a huge team does not scale well because everytime a devcontaner is opened more that 2GB of data are downloaded and unpacked.

This is a waste of network, disk, time resource that could be better used.

 

There is a way for having the tools packed in a devcontainer? They are the future of reproducible builds and sharing configuration between programmers.

 

thank you in advance

Andrea
