A bit of advice: remote desktops suck for professional developers. A workstation is more than just the software and OS. For me it already sucks to switch from standalone screen to the laptop. You also won't be able to support all the different use cases well.
My advise is to focus on one particular workflow (say vscode with Js) and perfect that one.
- GordonS 7y agoWhile I agree that finding a niche seems like a good plan, I'm not sure that VSCode and JS is the one - node/JS cloud IDEs have already been a thing for some time now.
- edunteman 7y agoThanks for the critical yet constructive feedback! The product currently available is a full-fledged remote desktop, forcing you to switch back and forth, which can certainly be sucky. The plan is to make the remote-hosted apps pop up as a window on your local machine, as if it were running locally, when really it's hosted and ran on a cloud VM. I want the apps (VSCode, for example) to seem completely local. Would this better accommodate your personal workflow?
