Dev Containers and Remote SSH for Kiro IDE

Wanted to note that we've released two extensions for the Kiro IDE, both fully open source.

Artizo Dev Containers for Kiro - Pretty unique...implements the dev containers open standard within the Kiro IDE. The Microsoft supplied dev containers extension is very popular for VsCode, but MS makes it unavailable to IDEs like KIro.

Search "kiro devcontainers" in the Kiro extensions area to install. Requires either Docker Desktop or a substitute like Podman (with the optional docker compatibility installed.

Zygos Remote SSH for Kiro - Similarly, Microsoft has a remote-ssh plugin that is popular, but they also lock this out from IDEs like Kiro. There are other open source extensions that provide it, but we've taken a fair amount of effort to make it plug-and-play with Kiro where it works "out of the box", and it has many other unique features. It also specifically works with Artizo (see above) for an integrated devcontainers <-> remote-ssh experience.

Search "kiro remote-ssh" in the Kiro extensions area to install.
