Body

I am excited to get my first codespace established, which means I need to issue docker commands.

With, for example,
docker stop $(docker ps -q)",

I get "The Codespace is not available" on a big white screen. I guess white is the new blue.

• Inside web version of VS Code, but similar in desktop
• The codespace looks likes it set up fine to my inexperienced eye
• I cant find any help from either Copilot, SO or google.
• anonymised devcontainer:
