Add a gitpod configuration

[peey]

Setting up for contributing for the first time is a bit of work. GitHub UI tries to make it a little easy, but that doesn't work (#78 (comment))

I'd like to add a gitpod configuration
to the repo so that an online IDE can be opened in a single click, with all the dependencies for the website available in a container, and terminal access for doing rebasing etc. This can later be replaced by GitHub's codespaces when that gets released.

I'm not sure how long this site will be used by the current admins, but I wanted to add gitpod to some repo to experiment with it and it'll be useful here so I think I'll add it in.

Interesting.
It'll be nice to not do the setup for small changes. Though I'm guessing it'll be hard to use for major improvements
Codespaces seems to be a very nice alternative (VSCode on cloud 😮)
But I'll be interested to see gitpod as well if someone integrates it

Till I integrate it, you can try it at https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/IIIT-Delhi/byld-website (works better in chrome)

I agree that Codespaces will probably be better, also considering that it has a huge number of engineers from microsoft behind it. But they didn't respond to my early access request :'(
