This is a sample project to go along with the "try" quick start for the **[VS Code Remote - Containers](https://aka.ms/vscode-remote/containers)** extension.
One you have this sample opened in a container, you'll be able to work with it like you would locally.
Some things to try:
2.**Edit:**
1. Open `server.go`
2. Try adding some code and check out the language features.
3.**Build, Run, and Debug:**
1. Open `sever.go`
2. Add a breakpoint.
3. Press <kbd>F5</kbd> to launch the app in the container.
4. Open a local browser and go to `http://localhost:9000` and note you can connect to the server in the container.
5. Once the breakpoint is hit, try hovering over variables, examining locals, and more.
4.**Forward another port:**
1. Stop debugging
2. Open `sever.js`
3. Change the server port to 5000. (`portNumber := "5000"`)
4. Press <kbd>F5</kbd> to launch the app in the container.
5. Press <kbd>F1</kbd> and run the **Remote-Containers: Forward Port...** command.
6. Select port 5000.
7. Click "Open Browser" in the notification that appears to access the web app on this new port.
