Hi I think you should use mount volumes for the source code and edit your code from your IDE normally:

docker run -it -v "$PWD":/app -w /app -u node node:10 yarn dev

here docker will create an image setting the working dir to "/app", mount the current dir to "/app" and run "yarn dev" at start up with the "node" user (none root user)

Hope this is helpfull.
