SQLite is a lightweight file based database that supports SQL queries. Create a new SQLite database in the container and execute some commands against it.
Open the integrated terminal and browse to "/"
Create a folder called "data"
Move into that folder and create a new SQLite database with sqlite3 lamp.db
Connect to the database with the SQLite Extension
Create a new table called "colors"
Insert a few records
Select the records back out
Open the integrated terminal with (Cmd/Ctrl + `)
Move to the root directly of the container
cd /
Create a folder called "data"
mkdir data
Move into that new folder
cd data
Create a new SQLite database called "lamp"
sqlite3 lamp.db
Display the database that was created with the ".databases" command
.databases
Type .quit to exit the SQLite prompt
Open the Command Prompt (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + P)
Select "SQLite: Open Database"
Select "Choose database from file" in the prompt
Type "/data/lamp.db" in the prompt
Open the Explorer view (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + E)
Notice there is now a "SQLite Explorer" view
Right-click the lamp.db database and select "New Query"
Use the commands found in "sqlite.sql" in the project to...
Create a table

-- SQLite
CREATE TABLE colors (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
