I don't see any reasonable alternatives that can support what VScode does, like running extensions that aren't installed locally. Maybe those features aren't something you want, but they're part of the product feature set.
- roland35 2y agoI believe extensions are actually installed on the host itself! At least when I use vs code remotely it shows "install on xxx" for each extension if I haven't installed it yet
- knallfrosch 2y agoExactly. You can use extensions without even installing them locally. They're installed on the host. Now imagine your host is a rented VM that you throw away after use.
