A development container is a running container with a well-defined tool/runtime stack and its prerequisites. You can try out development containers with GitHub Codespaces or Visual Studio Code Dev Containers.
This is a sample project that lets you try out either option in a few easy steps. We have a variety of other vscode-remote-try-* sample projects, too.
Note: If you already have a Codespace or dev container, you can jump to the Things to try section.
Follow these steps to open this sample in a Codespace:
- Click the Code drop-down menu.
- Click on the Codespaces tab.
- Click Create codespace on main .
For more info, check out the GitHub documentation.
If you already have VS Code and Docker installed, you can click the badge above or here to get started. Clicking these links will cause VS Code to automatically install the Dev Containers extension if needed, clone the source code into a container volume, and spin up a dev container for use.
Follow these steps to open this sample in a container using the VS Code Dev Containers extension:
-
If this is your first time using a development container, please ensure your system meets the pre-reqs (i.e. have Docker installed) in the getting started steps.
-
To use this repository, you can either open the repository in an isolated Docker volume:
open a locally cloned copy of the code:
- Clone this repository to your local filesystem.
- Press F1 and select the Dev Containers: Open Folder in Container... command.
- Select the cloned copy of this folder, wait for the container to start, and try things out!
