Description
Most of the .devcontainer files have not been updated in 5 years and refer to python 3.8.
Requirements.txt is only infrequently updated to update to newer versions of Pillow. It looks like there are some pinned versions in the requirement.txt that may be very out of date.
Is the devcontainer used anywhere else except for local development? Can I change it without breaking other processes?
