Description

Adds a .devcontainer/devcontainer.json for GitHub Codespaces and VS Code Dev Containers.

The config uses the Node 20 TypeScript devcontainer image, installs dependencies with the Playwright browser download skipped during npm ci, then runs npx playwright install --with-deps chromium so the browser and Linux system dependencies are installed in one explicit step.

I forwarded the repo-documented ports: Vite UI on 5173 and Express API on 3001.

Fixes #57

Type of change

  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)

Verification

  • node -e "JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('.devcontainer/devcontainer.json','utf8')); console.log('devcontainer json ok')"
  • git diff --check

I did not build the full Dev Container locally from this Windows workspace.

Implemented with Codex assistance; I kept the config source-backed against the existing package scripts and README ports.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Added a .devcontainer/devcontainer.json configuration that enables zero-setup development in GitHub Codespaces and VS Code Dev Containers. The configuration specifies a TypeScript/Node.js 20 base image, installs Playwright dependencies via post-create command, forwards ports 5173 and 3001, and installs ESLint, Playwright Test, and Tailwind CSS IntelliSense extensions.

Poem

🐇 A container emerges from JSON so neat,
No npm install dance, no Node setup feat,
Codespaces blooms with one click to begin,
Where contributors code without friction or spin,
The rabbit approves—dev tools done right! ✨
