I created this PR: tweaks to dev guide when setting up new laptop #10691
I've been setting up my new laptop and there were a few things in the dev guide that seemed a bit off.
Feedback welcome.
@Oliver Bertuch Steve K is used to the database being called dvndb and the user being called dvnapp so I added some hints for developers that under Docker these are different.
Good idea!
I just went with the natural choice of naming these things, cutting off old ties :innocent:
And years later we are finally realizing :sweat_smile:
Ok, I see you commented already, three hours ago.
Just a minor thingy
I can change it to recommend SDKMAN for all three platforms if you want.
Three? Not sure 'bout Windows. No wigwam and all.
I already say "On Mac and Windows, we suggest using SDKMAN..."
Oh, didn't catch that
Sure, please go ahead then :sweat_smile:
On podcasts I listen to, Windows folks use it. Java Pub House, for example.
Sooner or later the default JRE on Linux might be 21, so it's good to use sdkman anyway
yeah
