How to use GitHub Codespaces to Improve Student Learning

Video Description

Development containers, often known as dev containers, are containers that are designed to offer a fully featured development environment. You can set the dev container for a repository so that GitHub Codespaces created for that repository provide a customized development environment with all the required tools and runtimes for a particular project.
