Interesting approach to maintaining a clean dev environment using containers. This approach reminds me of Fedora Silverblue[1] that I’ve been wanting to try. It leverages OSTree for atomic upgrades and rollbacks. Users can run containers for CLI utils using toolbox[2]. This way, the base OS remains pristine, and there's less risk of "dependency hell" or inadvertent “package upgrades gone wrong”.
