   Hi, @samcrang Thanks for your suggestion.
   
   Our `main` branch is actually the `development` branch.
   Breaking changes or halfway PRs might be merged into `main` at any time, so it is not very appropriate to update the `latest` tag on Docker hub base on the `main` branch.
   
   And yes, you are correct, the `latest` tag is reserved for the most recent release version for users.
   
   As a developer, I don't really see the point of a `dev` docker image, we have to import at least the `core` package anyway, might as well clone the repo for the sake of debugging and code reading.  By the way, you don't need to bring up the whole `devlake` server/container for development. Check the [github.go](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/backend/plugins/github/github.go) you can run your plugin in a standalone mode which could increase your development pace quite a bit.
   ```
   go run ./path/to/your/plugin.go
   ```
