Run Codeium Windsurf in unprivileged podman container

• root account not involved

Why

• Windsurf is more thun just IDE so it's good idea to have it isolated from your host system

Run

If you have podman:

make build
make run

If you prefer docker:

make build DOCKER=docker
make run DOCKER=docker

We are forwarding X11 session and PulseAudio into the container, this is the reason why only Linux distributions are currently supported.

Expose source code to the container

Adjust HOST_PATH_TO_PROJECT and CONTAINER_PATH_TO_MOUNT_PROJECT in .makerc

Extensions

Download extensions from any extensions marketplace and drop them to docker_files/extensions, they will be installed next time you issue make run
