Developing with Codespaces
To ensure a consistent developer experience, we encourage the use of GitHub Codespaces, an in-browser coding environment built around Visual Studio Code.
Developers who are more familiar working on their local machine can adapt the instructions here to suit their own set-ups.
Step 1: Launch a Codespace
Using your browser, navigate to GitHub repository you have created in the previous section and select Code > Codespaces.

Wait for the post-create command to finish, and to be presented with a terminal. You will then be presented with Visual Studio Code running in your browser.
Step 2: Start the development server
Verify that your set up is complete by typing npm run dev
into the terminal,
and wait for your application to be built.
Step 3: Access your application
Click the ports tab in the bottom pane. Find port 3000, and click the globe to Open in Browser.

You may have to wait for a while as the next screen gets compiled before loading. Verify that you have successfully logged in by confirming that this screen:
