Pull Request (PR) description

This PR introduces GitHub Codespaces + DevContainer support for the FabricTools project.
The goal is to provide a consistent, ready-to-use development environment for contributors, simplifying onboarding and reducing machine-specific issues.

This PR adds a .devcontainer/ folder containing:

  • A complete devcontainer.json configuration
  • A post-create.ps1 script to install module dependencies
  • Recommended VS Code extensions for PowerShell and YAML workflows
  • Features enabling PowerShell, Git, Azure CLI, GitHub CLI, and common utilities

These changes improve developer experience and ensure all contributors can begin working immediately without local setup.

Added

  • Added .devcontainer/devcontainer.json for container configuration.
  • Added .devcontainer/post-create.ps1 to install PowerShell modules (PSResourceGet, Pester, Az.Accounts).
  • Added recommended VS Code extensions to support markdown, PowerShell, YAML, and spell checking.
  • Added features for PowerShell, Git, Azure CLI, GitHub CLI, and utility tooling.

Task list

  • The PR represents a single logical change.
  • [x ] Added an entry under the Unreleased section of CHANGELOG.md as per format.
  • Local clean build passes without issue (build.ps1 -ResolveDependency -Tasks build, test).
  • Comment-based help added/updated (N/A for devcontainer).
  • Examples appropriately added/updated (N/A for devcontainer).
  • Unit tests added/updated (N/A for devcontainer).
  • Integration tests added/updated (N/A for devcontainer).
  • Documentation added/updated (README or contributing docs may need reference).
  • Code follows the contribution guidelines.

This commit introduces a new DevContainer configuration file and a post-create PowerShell script. The configuration sets up a PowerShell development environment with essential features and extensions. The post-create script automates the installation of required PowerShell modules, ensuring a smooth setup process for developers.

Thank you!
Rename the DevContainer to "FabricTools PowerShell Dev" and ensure all necessary features are included for a better development experience. This enhances clarity and usability for developers working on the FabricTools project.

Thank you!
Adjusted the indentation for the customizations section in the devcontainer.json file to ensure proper JSON structure. This change enhances readability and maintains consistency in the configuration file.

Thank you!
This change introduces support for GitHub Codespaces and DevContainer, enhancing the development experience for contributors. This is a non-functional change aimed at improving setup and accessibility.

Thank you!
