VSCode Remote SSH’d into a cloud desktop is superior to local development. With the hardware being remote you can afford to get something that’s ultra fast and can run 24/7, and it still feels just as snappy and responsive as running it locally. I think this will be the standard for development within 3 years.
- lioeters 4y agoI agree - for a few years my primary display has been permanently full-screen VSCode with Remote SSH, either to a remote server or a local virtual machine. Occasionally I open another window to edit files locally, but that's become rarer. I love having everything in a container that I can always destroy and recreate, or spin up as many as I want for isolated environments. It taught me to write automation scripts and configs for reproducible setups. It's perfect for education and onboarding new team members too.
