It was chosen because it includes necessary tools like Docker and Node.js, which are required for running Dev Containers via the `@devcontainers/cli` tool.\n\nThis template provisions the following resources:\n\n- Docker image (built by Docker socket and kept locally)\n- Docker container pod (ephemeral)\n- Docker volume (persistent on `/home/coder`)\n- Docker volume (persistent on `/var/lib/docker`)\n\nThis means, when the workspace restarts, any tools or files outside of the home directory or docker library are not persisted.\n\nFor devcontainers running inside the workspace, data persistence is dependent on each projects `devcontainer.json` configuration.\n\n\u003e **Note**\n\u003e This template is designed to be a starting point! Edit the Terraform to extend the template to support your use case.\n"
