That was the real eye opener for me. I've setup search engines before...getting the right version of Java, and Tomcat, getting my environment variables set for the current thing I'm working on (which meant UNsetting them for other projects I had worked on), then finally configuring the service.
I just did the same thing other day, but I was able to spin up ElasticSearch and Kibana in minutes. Docker even took care of the downloading :)
I think this is an overlooked but really important point. Containers are not just about the deployment enjoyment. You don't need to install MySQL/MongoDB/Tomcat/nginx/etc locally anymore to do work, just spin up a container.
Want to try that new CMS? Spin up a container. When you're done your machine isn't polluted with a bunch of files, environment variables, or modified path. Every dev should know how to do this.
