The Visual Studio Code Dev Containers extension lets you use a container as a full-featured development environment. It allows you to open any folder inside (or mounted into) a container and take advantage of Visual Studio Code's full feature set. A devcontainer.json file in your project tells VS Code how to access (or create) a development container with a well-defined tool and runtime stack. This container can be used to run an application or to separate tools, libraries, or runtimes needed for working with a codebase.
Workspace files are mounted from the local file system or copied or cloned into the container. Extensions are installed and run inside the container, where they have full access to the tools, platform, and file system. This means that you can seamlessly switch your entire development environment just by connecting to a different container.

VSCode is a free, open source IDE. Code-server runs an instance of VS code that can then be accessed locally via browser. This allows us to start up a predictable VScode instance in Vagrant.
In order to provision Visual Studio Code Server (Visual Studio IDE in a browser) you need bastetools, docker as dependencies.
vagrant up --provision-with basetools,docker,vscode-server
To access the Web UI visit the following address:
http://localhost:7777/
The default password will be printed to console on start up. Else it can be obtained by the following command:
vagrant ssh -c "< ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml head -n "3" | tail -n +"3""
In the future there is potential to add an option for starting different code-server instances. Currently it always launches with the default image. Custom images could be setup that have different things preinstalled (e.g. Image with python, usefull libaries and useful extentions pre installed).
