GitHub Codespaces: Streamlining Cloud-Based Development
My first serious Codespaces session was a demo I nearly cancelled. I wanted to show my mean-docker starter (Angular, Express, MongoDB, everything in Docker Compose) to someone whose laptop had none of that installed. No Node, no Docker Desktop, no MongoDB. Instead of walking them through an afternoon of setup, I clicked “Create codespace” on the repo and had the full stack running in a browser tab a few minutes later.
