Is development with GitHub Codespaces currently possible?

I’ve been looking at the possibility of using Codespaces as my dev environment via a web browser but unsure about the feasibility of running the Playdate simulator through it.

Codespaces runs on Linux so it should in theory be possible (I think…) although I’m a bit out of my depth with the technicalities of how it all works. I’m hoping for someone more qualified can weigh in. If it’s “impossible because of X” then that’s fine as it’ll save me from wasting any more time with it, but if it may be possible… then I will do some further exploration!

I have not tested this, but it should be possible to run pdc in Codespaces if you copy it over (unless there's a library missing or something). Not so sure about the simulator though.

Thanks! I think I might give it a try
