It's the text editor control (used, e.g., in Visual Studio Team Services). The editor (incl. plugin system, IO, ...) is afaik not available as a webpage.

  It's a little bit more than only an editor. E.g. it contains the complete framework for custom languages with syntax highlighting, auto completion, annotations, etc. You can easily plug in support for your custom languages there. What it doesn't contain compared to VsCode is multiple panes, file management, etc.

    The App Service Editor (which uses Monaco) does have file management. It even has a web-based command-line interface. https://github.com/projectkudu/kudu/wiki/App-Service-Editor https://github.com/projectkudu/kudu/wiki/App-Service-Editor

      You can of course build file management on top of the base Monaco component. Monaco itself provides only APIs to set or retrieve the content of a monaco editor widget. You can then build some kind of filemanager on top of it which loads file contents from whereever and puts them into an editor instance.

    Actually you can try out VSO Monaco easily at https://tryappservice.azure.com/ https://tryappservice.azure.com/. It supports Git, file management, a console etc. For a set of short videos see https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Visual-Studio-Online-Monaco https://channel9.msdn.com/Series/Visual-Studio-Online-Monaco

It's actually how VSCode started :). It was supposed to be web based IDE, then Atom and Electron happened and Monaco was put into Electron shell and that became VSCode.

    Yes, and Monaco is alive in VSTS(Team Services) and Azure's web app IDE. :) Well, VSO(VS Online) was used internally by MS way before VSCode was an idea.

It's actually built into Azure websites. To navigate there directly, have you app name ready and put it in this URL: https://XXXX.scm.azurewebsites.net/dev/wwwroot/ https://XXXX.scm.azurewebsites.net/dev/wwwroot/ where XXXX is the name of your site. For a little more history, you can listen to my podcast where we interview some of the brains behind it: http://msdevshow.com/2015/09/visual-studio-code-with-chris-dias-and-erich-gamma/ http://msdevshow.com/2015/09/visual-studio-code-with-chris-d...
