I really want to limit the amount of software I am installing on my main system due to possible security issues.
I have recently moved to a VM only development workflow, but still feeling some growing pains as I figure out a good setup. I run my IDE in the guest, which is kind of crummy - responsiveness is worse + the VMs are a lot heavier than a headless code setup would be. I have thought about using a Flatpak IDE with filesystem access disabled as a potential middle ground solution so that the guests could be minimal images connected by SSH.
