## Overview

This repository provides a Bicep authoring devcontainer and a sample deployment entry point. The documented workflow is to open the repository in VS Code Remote or Codespaces, edit `main.bicep`, authenticate with Azure CLI, create a resource group, and deploy the template. The README documents these relationships; no source excerpts were provided, so the template’s contents and the devcontainer’s internal configuration are not detailed here.

Main entry points: [`main.bicep`](https://github.com/azure/vscode-remote-try-bicep/blob/main/main.bicep) (Bicep template), [`.devcontainer`](https://github.com/azure/vscode-remote-try-bicep/tree/main/.devcontainer) (Devcontainer)
