Description:
Problem:
Currently, setting up the signal-cli project in GitHub Codespaces requires manual configuration, which can be error-prone and time-consuming.
Solution:
This pull request adds two files:
.devcontainer/Dockerfile: Sets up the Java 17 environment necessary for building and running signal-cli.
.devcontainer/devcontainer.json: Configures the Codespaces environment to use the specified Dockerfile and ensures that the correct extensions and settings are applied.
Testing:
Successfully tested the build and setup in GitHub Codespaces.
Verified that the project builds and runs without issues in the new environment.
Versions:
signal-cli version: v0.13.4
libsignal-client version: v0.10.1
JDK version: 17.0.11
Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04
