Why:
Using devcontainers for development in IDEs like VSCode or even remote
environments like Github Codespaces is an emerging paradigm. One of the
biggest supposed benefits is reproducibility of the development
environment, hopefully negating the dreated "it works on my machine!"
What:
Add a simple hierarchy of files to help future development
efforts in such IDEs or remote environments
A couple of notes:
* This builds upon docker.io/clojure:temurin-21-tools-deps-bookworm for
now, as this the linux Distro, I mostly feel comfortable with. The
intent is to align this with the image in the main Dockerfile, namely
docker.io/clojure:temurin-21-alpine
* It installs Calva by default, which is the Clojure enabling addon for
VSCode. While it works very well in VSCode, I am meeting some issues
with the REPL functionality in Github Codespaces.
* Unprivileged podman is possible, but commented out for now by default,
as I am still evaluating how well it works with Github Codespaces.
