## Requirements

See the [system requirements page][dev-containers-min-requirements] for a minimal set of tools required to get started.

## Using Containers



Using a dev container is easy as copying the content into the project root, and:



With VS Code:

- Edit the `post-create.zsh` script, if needed

- Run command: `Rebuild and Reopen in Container`



### Browsing container registry



Microsoft guide to [Browse the Container Registry][mcr-guide-to-browse] is a good source to learn how the dev container images are organized. [See the entire catelog on Docker Hub.][mcr-catelog]



[mcr-guide-to-browse]: https://github.com/microsoft/containerregistry#browsing-mcr-content

[mcr-catelog]: https://hub.docker.com/_/microsoft-vscode-devcontainers



### `.devcontainer` folder



These dev containers [use container features][ms-devcontainers-use-features-docs] to mix and match sandboxes, and avoid the use of `docker compose` to construct and spawn container instances. See the `devcontainer.json` file inside the folder to learn full-blown configurations.



[ms-devcontainers-use-features-docs]: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers#_dev-container-features-preview



### `.vscode` folder



These dev containers are configured to build and run the source within VS Code. See the `tasks.json` file inside the folder to learn more.



## Feedback



If you have any technical problems with VS Code or Dev Containers, you are better off [asking VS Code Support directly][vscode-support], since you'll end up getting a much faster response back that way.

## Contributing



The official repo to contribute would be [@microsoft/vscode-dev-containers][vscode-dev-containers-repo].
