Bicep Authoring Devcontainer

This is a simple devcontainer which can be used with CodeSpaces or VSCode Remote to get all the tooling needed to start authoring bicep.

Quick Start: VSCode Remote

1. Clone the repository.
2. Configure the development environment by installing VSCode and the "Remote - Containers" extension. Quick start docs here.
3. Open the repository in VSCode
4. CTRL+SHIFT+P then type Reopen in container to open the devcontainer in VSCode.
5. Open a terminal in VSCode with CTRL+SHIFT+P -> Terminal: Create new integrated terminal. We'll use this to run Bicep commands.
6. Run az login from the VSCode terminal to connect to your Azure account.
7. Run the following to create a resource group and deploy your Bicep file to it.

   az group create -n my-rg -l eastus
   az deployment group create -f ./main.bicep -g my-rg
   

8. Open main.bicep in to modify the resources you want to deploy, and re-run the az deployment group command to re-deploy the resources.

Quick Start: Codespaces

1. Open this repository in GitHub Codespaces.
2. Open a terminal in VSCode with CTRL+J. We'll use this to run Bicep commands.
3. Run az login from the VSCode terminal to connect to your Azure account.
4. Run the following to create a resource group and deploy your Bicep file to it.

   az group create -n my-rg -l eastus
   az deployment group create -f ./main.bicep -g my-rg
   

5. Open main.bicep in your Codespaces window to modify the resources you want to deploy, and re-run the az deployment group command to re-deploy the resources.

Next Steps

Review the Bicep documentation to build out more advanced scenarios.
