📦 Example repository showing how to use dbt inside Visual Studio Code development containers

Using dbt with Visual Studio Code .devcontainer

Example repository showcasing how to use dbt with some extra goodies inside a .devcontainer environment (Visual Studio Code, GitHub Codespaces, ...).

Note Alternatively, you can also try Datadex. It covers similar grounds but uses a simpler stack (DuckDB).

Quickstart

The quickest way to get started is to use GitHub Codespaces. You can create one from this repository and get a development environment available in your browser.

You can also clone the repository and use Remote Containers to run the development environment.

Once you're inside, move to the jaffle_shop folder and follow the README instructions! You should be able to seed the data with dbt seed and see it in the SQLTools icon in the sidebar.
