The advantage of using this image is that the features are pre-built which shifts the build effort into GitHub Actions rather than on your local machine.
This can be easily extended with additional features by adding them to your
.devcontainer/devcontainer.json file.
These images can be used in any way that Dev Containers supports. Typically,
this would be by specifying the image in your devcontainer.json file:
{
"name": "devcontainer",
"image": "ghcr.io/mrsimonemms/devcontainers/full"
}As this image is pre-built, it will vastly speed up your workflow.
