Hi,

I saw your great reddit post and the person asking for help. I had added a devcontainer for my personal use but with slight tweaks I think it now works fine for even the (crummy) runner/IDE users get for free on github with the "Open in codespace" button. I tried a quick test and "make cs" and other make variants work nicely. Running just "make" dies because openscad runs out of memory because vscodespaces I think are limited to 14GB of RAM.

  • Just run 'make' and it should build everything
  • Should work on any OS that can run containers
  • Uses the 'fast' appimage from openscad releases
  • (manifold is now the default backend when using that appimage)

(Adding a .devcontainer doesn't change anything for users that don't want to use devcontainers)
