dev-docker-desktop-snap-vscode-text-editor

Description

This is a POC project to demonstrate vscode a text editor.

As of the creation of this project: vscode is depreciated, use at your own risk.

This is a barebones installation no pluggins where added.

In order to be able to get files out of the container one must add a volume to the docker run command.

ie. without a volume docker run --rm ... with a volume docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app ...

Supports X11 display forwarding from docker container.

Snap is specific to Ubuntu OS, use of the Dockerfile with other OS may break.

The technique used can be found in install.sh under the start-up
