@markpatterson27 (one of our verified GitHub Global Campus teachers) had a couple of fantastic questions! Q: Best practices for speeding up codespace devcontainer builds? If I'm using anything other than the default GH kitchen sink image, builds can take several minutes (sometimes 5+ minutes) which is not ideal in the middle of a lesson. Q: Are there any plans for OR Is it possible to have, organisation wide pre-build images? Typical education use for codespaces is to have several/lots of students using the same image but on their own seperate repos. This means each student has to wait for the same custom image to build when launching a codespace from their (GH classroom assignment) repo. (This is different from more typical use where you might have several people working in the same repo, thereby being able to make use of the repo level image pre-build.) |
