I'm in a bit of a pickle with my programming projects for school (42). I work from home on my PC and often on school computers, which don't allow me to use sudo, so that limits some capabilities. I was thinking about setting up a container on my server, which I own, to keep my work synchronized without always resorting to Git. My server is from Aruba, but it doesn't have the best computational resources. I'd like to utilize the CPU and RAM from my home PC and school machines while keeping the container and data on my server. Is there a way to make this setup work?

Have you considered using Parsec? It allows you to access your home desktop from anywhere, and you can work on your projects seamlessly across devices. Just set everything up at home and use Parsec to connect from your laptop or school machines.
Honestly, I think the straightforward answer is no. Trying to share CPU and RAM across different machines while maintaining a container can be tricky and might not work as you hope.
If you want a version control solution without Git, you could create a local git repository or just use FileZilla with SFTP over SSH to manage your data transfers between devices. It's a straightforward way to handle file syncing.
That was my hunch too. It feels like a lot to manage!
