Rebuilding the Devcontainer

Usually, rebuilding the Dev Container shouldn’t be necessary, but it can be a good troubleshooting step.

VS Code

Click the Dev Container button in the bottom left of VS Code or press ctrl+alt+o. A search menu will pop up where you can search for Rebuild Container.

The window will reload and show a notificaiton that it is connecting to the Dev Container. You can click on this notification to show a log from the rebuilding container.

Once the notification disappears, the container is rebuilt and VS Code has connected to it.

Zed

Click File > Open Folder or press ctrl+k then ctrl+o to open a file dialogue. Reselect the UkoOS project directory, and click Yes, Open in Container on the notification to the bottom right. You will have to close your old Zed window.

It may be easier to open UkoOS from the recent projects list, which you can open by clicking the project name in the top left or by pressing ctrl+alt+o.

If you re-open the project using the recent projects list, it will open in your current Zed window.
