Dev Container

A dev container is a lightweight, portable development environment defined by a devcontainer.json file inside the .devcontainer folder, typically used with containerization technologies like Docker. It allows developers to quickly set up their environment, with containerization technology being the only prerequisite, as the container defines the necessary tools, dependencies, and settings for a consistent development environment across any platform.
