Codespaces, Gitpod, Devpod what cloud and container-based IDEs can do for you
summary
Demonstrates Codespaces, Gitpod and Devpod by actually creating and running a Spring Boot service from an empty repo into a cloud container, showing a working actuator endpoint and a Spring Boot app in ~2 minutes; uses Visual Studio Code in-browser, local VS Code and IntelliJ Gateway to attach to the same remote container; shows Docker and Kubernetes provisioning (Devpod can target your Kubernetes or local Docker or VMs) and mentions container lifetimes/caching (images cached, containers typically retained ~two weeks), Azure hosting for Codespaces, free trial limits (~40–50 hours/month) and secrets handled via GitHub/GitLab secrets.
