What about those who use a non-vscode env ;) Like me

This config works with GH Codespaces and VSCode with devcontainers extension. If you use something that has devcontainer support then it'll probably have it's own customizations. Jetbrains has a guide to it.
If you doubt that vscode extensions part might interfere with the spawning devcontainer, I don't think it will but you're welcome to test it out.
What do you use?

Good point from @AvineshTripathi. I'm on SublimeText and nvim.

I know that neovim has devcontainer support, don't know if SublimeText does or not.
As I said, the respective tools will have their own customizations. I know how to mention the same for vscode & codespaces but not for other tools.
Problem
Some new contributors face issues when setting up their environment for the first time
Solution
Adds a devcontainer config file. This can be used to spawn a devcontainer locally or a GitHub codespace with
How to Test
Try to create a devcontainer using VS code extension or try creating a GitHub codespace.
