I have a bunch of bash scripts that were built in Ubuntu 20.04 to run in that same environment. I used to use VS Code and WSL in Windows, but I have recently moved to a mac and am finding that the scripts have many issues when they execute due to there being a number of differences between the bash environments on mac and ubuntu (e.g. mac has BSD utils, ubuntu has gnu utils).
I am currently trying to adapt the mac to be as close to ubuntu as possible, but I should probably just use an actual ubuntu environment!
In vs code on windows, wsl gave me a docker ubuntu container that vs code magically made appear as an integrated terminal with access to all the script files on the windows host and i am wondering if it is possible to setup the same type of thing on the mac - can anyone advise?
I have seen some messages and blogs that talk about using Vagrant to achieve this, but this sounds more complicated than just using a docker container as above (also,i have docker/colima already installed).
