Vscode, use c# extension with docker dotnet

Question

Is it possible to use vs code c# extension in conjunction with docker dotnet image ?
I don't want to install dotnet SDK locally nor visual studio.

Answer 1

You can use C# with VS code by installing this extension https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-dotnettools.csharp

There is also a docker extension for vs code

Answer 2

If you rather use a Docker container to host the developer bits, you can use VSCode Remote to connect to that container,

That does not only work for .NET, but also Python and others.
