Developing for Drupal9 on windows

[javaskater]

• I try do develop modules in Drupal9 using VSCode on Windows and Drupal 9 in a Docker Container (For that pupose, I am using the Docker for Drupal project)
• on the Window side I get in my VSCode workspace the following structure:

PS C:\Users\jeanp\CONSULTANT\docker4drupal> dir

the web and vendor directories are copied from the php container!

• On the windows side (Host) when I create a Hello World empty module under web/modules/custom/helo_world/hello_world.info.yml this one does not appear under http://drupal.docker.localhost:8000/admin/modules
  • and this although there is a volume definition in the php container and the nginx container (see the docker-compose file).

volumes:
    - ./:/var/www/html:cached

• I must add that I don't understand what is the target of the docker-compose.override file especially what the codebase definition means.

docker-compose.override.yml file overrides php image to vanilla, if you have your own codebase you should just delete, it's all described in the docs
