Hi @dharantej1, we're thrilled you're using Codespaces! As you experienced at first, Codespaces and VSCode attempt to auto-detect any services you are running in the codespace and have VSCode forward them, but if the service you're running is not being auto-detected, you can forward the ports manually after starting the service, or you can set up a devcontainer.json to specify which ports should be forwarded every time you connect to a codespace for that repo. See the docs on forwarding ports in Codespaces for more detail. Hope this helps, and good luck!
