I would like to try that yes, it would be a pleasure but I have zero knowledge on the dev tools, setups and processes required for that. If someone gives me some pointers I would love to try it. I'm a software developer so I should be able to at least try. Can you point me to some hands-on docs on setting up my env ? I use Debian Linux 10 and 11 VMs, if that is relevant, I could copy a VM for this purpose and start right away Thank you Joao (pg user for many many years) > > -- > Daniel Gustafsson https://vmware.com/ > >
