I feel like this is exactly where Microsoft ist aiming for with VSCode, Codespaces etc: 1. Give away the Code Editor as Open source, but make important Plugins (Python Development, Live Share,...) closed source. 2. Make the life for developers easier/ more productive by integrating cloud offerings. Oh, you're starting a python project? Use our code space for development and click here to automatically deploy it to Azure, everything correctly configured. No need to deal with Ops. 3. Make $$$ with Cloud services and enterprise tooling.
