This pull request introduces two major updates to the MuSiC toolkit: the integration of an R development container with Docker for use in GitHub Codespaces, and significant enhancements to the code documentation.
Changes
1. R Devcontainer and Docker Integration for Codespace Environments
R Development Container: A specialized R development container for MuSiC is now set up within a Docker environment. This integration facilitates editing and running MuSiC in cloud-based development environments like GitHub Codespaces.
Pre-configured R Environment: The update provides a pre-configured R environment with all necessary dependencies, promoting a consistent and reproducible coding experience across different machines.
2. Enhanced Code Documentation
Comprehensive Comments and Annotations: The MuSiC codebase now includes detailed comments and annotations. This enhancement aims to improve the overall user experience and the readability of the code.
Clear Explanations: Annotations are provided for each line of code and function, aiding in the understanding of the underlying logic and supporting easier modifications or customizations of the toolkit.
Additional Updates
Readme Update: The README file has been updated with revised instructions for using Codespaces with MuSiC, reflecting the new integration and documentation changes.
Impact
These updates are expected to streamline the user experience for both new and existing users of the MuSiC toolkit, making it more accessible and easier to work with.
Testing
[ ] Ensure compatibility and functionality in GitHub Codespaces.
[ ] Verify that the updated documentation accurately reflects the codebase.
Requests for Review
Feedback on the Docker integration setup.
Suggestions for further improvements to the documentation.
