If you have [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com) and [Docker](https://www.docker.com) installed, you can use the [VS Code remote containers plugin](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers-tutorial). The plugin will read the [`.devcontainer`](https://github.com/rails/rails/tree/main/.devcontainer) configuration in the repository and build the Docker container locally.

#### Using Dev Container CLI

Alternatively, with [Docker](https://www.docker.com) and [npm](https://github.com/npm/cli) installed, you can run [Dev Container CLI](https://github.com/devcontainers/cli) to utilize the [`.devcontainer`](https://github.com/rails/rails/tree/main/.devcontainer) configuration from the command line.

```bash
$ npm install -g @devcontainers/cli
$ cd rails
$ devcontainer up --workspace-folder .
$ devcontainer exec --workspace-folder . bash
```

#### Using rails-dev-box

It's also possible to use the [rails-dev-box](https://github.com/rails/rails-dev-box) to get a development environment ready. However, the rails-dev-box uses Vagrant and Virtual Box which will not work on Macs with Apple silicon.
