Ticket: 36

branch: create-dev-container

Overview

What was done

• [X] Create devcontainer.json file and add basic functionality
• [X] Create Dockerfile file and add basic functionality
• [X] Create postCreateCommand file to run after building devcontainer
• [X] Add Flutter stable 3.16.9 to Dockerfile

What needs to be done

• [ ] When trying to run java --version, it still fails and returns

  qemu-arm: Could not open '/lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3': No such file or directory

  as an error.

• Adoptium Java Binaries Repository

• Steps to Install Openjdk 17 ubuntu Linux such as 22.04 or 20.04

• [ ] Investigate and find out how to add Google Chrome or something similar in the devcontainer

• [ ] Investigate if it is possible to build Dockerfile before running the devcontainer which effectively enables the docker image not to be destroyed when the devcontainer is closed. In the .devcontainer file:

{
...
"image": "multichoice:androidsdk",
OR
"build": {
    "dockerfile": "Dockerfile"
},
...
}
