Yup, I tested it on codespaces a couple times. I don't have the option to ask for review in this repository yet! |

Why?
The process of testing out LiquidJava with Codespaces involved multiple steps.
This is an attempt to make it easier and more friendly for the user.
Result
Now the user just needs two clicks to create the Codespace, which automatically opens the
/examples/demofolder and installs the extension through thesetup.shscript.Limitations
Since we still need to rely on the VSIX file, this process is not as straightforward as it could be, and the only dev container command this worked was the
postAttachCommand, since it is the only one that runs after VS Code fully loads and attaches to the container, allowing extensions to be installed. However, this command runs every time the Codespace is opened or a new terminal is created. For this reason, I also added a check to skip the extension installation process if it is already installed.This will be improved in the future when the extension is published in the marketplace.
