I’m fairly new to microsoft’s/vscode’s devcontainers. I’m setting up a new java dev environment. I’m referencing one of the pre-built versions of Dockerfile
: mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/java:1-21
. Everything works, but I was confused as to what the tag 1-21
meant. According to the docs it has something to do with automatic updates using semantic versioning.
According to the list of available tags, here is a sample of java 21 tags that are available:
1-21
1.1-21
1.1.0-21
1.1.1-21
1.1.9-21
Could someone help explain to me the differences between the various tags?
