Learn how to automate your dev environment using dev containers and GitHub Codespaces. GitHub Codespaces is a cloud-based development environment hosted by GitHub in an isolated Docker container. Dev containers enable you to preconfigure and automate your development environment using a `devcontainer.json` file. By adding this file, you can streamline your setup process, install dependencies, start the development server, and even install VS Code extensions automatically. With GitHub Codespaces, you can start coding faster, automate startup processes, and code from anywhere using a modern browser.
