    Development Containers: Use a container as a full-featured development environment. (by devcontainers)

  • This is about containers .. so primarily about running a Linux dev environment in a container. https://containers.dev

    I would guess the Microsoft angle here is to make the process smooth for a developer running VS Code in Windows to develop in a Linux container from Windows. I personally use it in Codespaces, so there is also the cloud developer environment aspect of it.

    Nothing about this is Microsoft or Windows-specific.
