Implement Natural Language Text Generation of Devcontainer for Projects Without Code

[nkkko]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Users may want to generate a devcontainer.json for new projects that do not yet have any code. Relying solely on repository content is not possible in such cases, necessitating an alternative approach for generating meaningful configurations.

Describe the solution you'd like

• Implement a new feature that uses embeddings stored in the database and performs a similarity search to generate a devcontainer.json based on natural language descriptions and examples.
• Allow users to input a description of their new project, which will be used to find similar projects in the database.
• Generate a devcontainer.json template by adapting the configurations of those similar projects.

Describe alternatives you've considered

• Using static templates, but this wouldn't be as flexible or tailored to specific project needs.

Additional context

1. Frontend Changes:

   • Update the user interface to include an input field for natural language descriptions of new projects.
   • Add an option for users to generate devcontainer.json for projects without existing code.

2. Backend Changes:

   • Implement functionality to fetch and utilize embeddings from the database.
   • Perform similarity searches against stored embeddings to find related project configurations.
   • Use these configurations to generate a new devcontainer.json template customized to the user's project description.

3. Database Changes:

   • Ensure embeddings generated during previous processes are stored and retrievable.
   • Optimize database schema and indexing for efficient similarity searches.

4. Testing:

   • Thoroughly test the feature to ensure that natural language inputs produce relevant and useful devcontainer.json configurations.
   • Validate the generated configurations to ensure they meet the requirements of the projects they are intended to support.
