Notes

The IDE will have access to AdoptOpenJDK 8 and to Git as well. Project folders need to be mounted like -v ~/Project:/home/developer/Project. The actual name can be anything - I used something random to be able to start multiple instances if needed. You might want to consider using --network=host if you're running servers from the IDE.
