By using a remote machine, you gain in upfront cost but you lose dev time due to poor tooling. It's possible to use X11, SSH, SSHFS, or Kubernetes but it never truly replaces the flexibility of developing locally with an IDE. Kubernetes tooling _might_ get there in the future though.
If you have a team at work dedicated to the tooling problem, remote dev can become really nice though.
