I've been using it for the last couple of weeks on a development VPS and really love it. I'm considering moving my dev environment over to the server and just open a browser to do all the work.
- dschuessler 5y agoIs there any upside compared to using the SSH Remote extension? https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh It automatically sets up the server for me on any machine I can SSH into and I can use real VSCode instead of the browser version.
- adevx 5y agoBenefits of code-server is that it requires zero tooling on the client except a browser. I can use e.g. someone's iPad to quickly do some edits vs requiring my laptop with SSH keys. Other than that, using native vscode is a bit faster and has all keyboard shortcuts working. I use both vscode remote with SSH and "code server" behind NGINX.
