What other remote development environments exist? I can only think of cloud9.

  Nano/vim/emacs/etc over a remote (SSH) terminal, remote VM, or remote session via other means (e.g. VNC/RDC/etc). People use Visual Studio itself remotely via VMs and RDC.

    Yep, I use Remotix on a remote mac on my ipad pro. It works well mostly. When the bandwidth is not sufficient, it really drives one up a wall ofcourse...

      When you spend 1000s of dollars to get the dev experience we had at the dawn of the age of computing lol

        Yes :) Isn't modern computing excellent? One quite significant difference though; portability. Also not quite $1000s; $800 for the ipad (and a $400 one would do fine) and $20/mo for the mac. Beats a mbp most of the time in a modern 4g/wifi environment. Ofcourse there are many caveats; embedded programming, game programming, mobile app testing etc. But I still do about 60-70% (depending) on it; it's great for building / testing / deploying API's and some months that's all I do.

          I think embedded programming would be possible once web browsers start supporting USB devices.

    Or any editor/IDE via ssh -X (the window's show locally while the app runs on the server)
