+## Install Dev Containers extension
+
+Start by opening the project with VS Code. Within it, you will need to install the extension _Dev Containers_, which can be done from the _Extensions_ section, reachable via the sidebar icons.

+
+## Open the project in a container
+
+If everything is correct, this should make a few new commands available to you within VS Code. Find and run the command "Dev Containers: Reopen in Container".

+
+The first time you do this, it will go into a bit of a process. It will create the devcontainer, pull the Docker images, install the dependencies, etc. Go drink some water while this runs.

I'll have a look, but it's going to be in the same ballpark as the Docker install that we already document.
