Why?
This just embeds electron and shoves it into the terminal instead of the native frontend.
All the same downsides of Electron with practically little to no upside other than the same folks who ruined the web are now ruining the terminal.
Hahaha!! This VScode ide definitely deserves it! Fantastic idea! You've my vote mate, good work!
or just fake the layout using zellij, fzf and a little scripting... hehe https://github.com/etnt/my-zellij-config
But does it also run a terminal emulator inside, which runs terminal-code inside, which…
vscode server and links2 probably wont cut it 8)
This is coming dangerously close to reinventing the X (as in X11) protocol.
How does it compare performance wise? Feature parity? Can you spawn shells in the terminal pane or is there no terminal pane and you're expected to being your own multiplexer?
That's exactly what I am looking for several years. Because VSCode is a bit slow via RDP or X11 Remote. I will try it out when I'm back at work.
Why not use vscode remote via ssh port forwarding? I just use it via my browser.
You can run it directly from a web browser too.
There is ssh extension and remote containers extension, they work together.
just use neovim :)
`emacs -nw` with DOOM Emacs for me. :)
As a shell then rum terminal code inside
Made me smile for sure!
I got excited that it's like TurboPascal, but this is basically VS Code over RDP (uses video streaming over kitty protocol).
