GitHub Engineering Team Adopts Codespaces As Default Coding Environment

GitHub has announced that its entire engineering team has adopted Codespaces to get rid of local development environments. GitHub Codespaces offers Visual Studio in the cloud - powered by virtual machines (VMs) running on the cloud. GitHub's own repository is ever growing and is now ~13 GB on disk; and bootstrapping would take around ~45 minutes on average. With Codespaces, GitHub engineers can create preconfigured codespaces in under 10 seconds.
