could you please link some best-practice or tutorial for new users on how to use codespaces

[twsl]

Devcontainers allow you to use docker containers to create reproducible development environments and removes the problems, that something doesn't run on your machine. Codespaces builds upon that and allows you to run a devcontainer on github, e.g. in case you want to edit something on the fly, but I'm not sure if it's still for free.
You just need VS Code and Docker and will be prompted to open the project in a devcontainer, when a configuration exists.
