-****Notes:**** Codespaces is a free service with a monthly quota of compute time and storage usage. It is commended for testing commands, troubleshooting, and running simple case files without the need to install dependencies and build MFC on your device. Remember to save any important files locally before closing your codespace. To learn more, read through [docker](https://mflowcode.github.io/documentation/docker.html).

+**Selecting OS/ARCH:**

+Docker by default selects the compatible architecture when pulling and running a container. However, you can manually specify your platform (i.e. `linux/amd64` for most devices or `linux/arm64`for Apple Silicon).
