How to use
To begin working with this clone the repository template and start Visual Studio Code, there you'll be prompted to Open Folder in Container, after doing this you'll be working within the remote container. Once inside the Structurizr CLI will be part of your PATH so you can simply invoke it
Alternatively you can just copy over the contents of the ./devcontainer folder into your project

What is a Dev container?
NOTE: For a complete, and probably better description refer to the official documentation from Microsoft here.
Dev containers allows you to have a completely isolated and self-contained environment where all the dependencies you will need for a specific project are already installed and configured and won't clash with anything else you might have installed in your host machine.
