Root, Docker and VS Code
Gitpod has introduced new features to improve its dev environment management system. Users can now run commands using sudo and install additional tools with their favorite package managers. Docker images can be run and built within workspaces, allowing users to start containers directly from the workspace. VS Code is now supported alongside Theia, and users can switch between them in settings or bring their own web IDE through a Docker image. Additionally, Gitpod has added support for connecting self-managed GitLab applications with gitpod.io. Future updates will include enhancements to prebuilds, SSH access to workspaces, and a redesign of the dashboard.
