# What is [Homey-Dev](https://github.com/cgHome/homey-dev) ???

see: [https://github.com/cgHome/homey-dev](https://github.com/cgHome/homey-dev)

Homey-Dev is a development environment consisting of the normal Homey-App and a runtime environment ([via athom-cli](https://github.com/athombv/node-athom-cli)) in a (Homey-Dev) docker container. The container is controlled by various commands (see [Bash commands](https://github.com/cgHome/homey-dev#bash-commands)), which are defined as “bash-functions” during installation.

Furthermore, different Build-Tools commands are integrated, which are implemented as [npm-scripts](https://github.com/cgHome/homey-dev#homey-dev-build-tools) and can be used with “homey-run …” or “npm run …” (If node.js is installed on host). In addition, a remote debugger can be defined for the Homey-App in development mode.

Can you tell me what the purpose is to run the atom cli within a docker container?

Thanks, not really interested in using a docker container, since node is running fine locally, but the info/config to remote debug my app is great!
