Glad to see others talking about devcontainers and sharing their experiences and setups. I've been thinking and writing about this too. It's definitely not as streamlined as I'd like but I like this idea of running a script to yank the current directory into a devcontainer, setup a github project, and formulate a plan of action so that when you click on the link to your new repo, you are basically ready to rock n’ roll.
We are not there yet but I feel like it might not be that far away.
Here's a link to the full forum post which links to the post that started the conversation. #
