This maybe an issue with my other knowledge too (like docker) which is where a 'here dummy, step 1' guide would be super helpful! |

Thank you so much for writing a detailed issue, we appreciate it.
Docker Compose is a great way to define a multi-container development environment. Rather than adding things like databases or redis to your Dockerfile, you can reference existing images for these services and focus your Dev Container’s content on tools and utilities you need for development. More details can be found in the guid here. Hope that helps. Thank you for trying out devcontainers. |
