    That sounds like a nice protection from accidentally installing unknown black box proprietary code on your computer with access to all your projects.

        @Templa I’m actually using github.com/coder/code-server for that. It’s also built only from the open-source parts of vscode, but it is made to run in browser. So I just deploy the docker container with code-server to the more powerful remote machine, and open my browser, where it can be used as PWA so it’s almost unrecognizable from a native desktop app.

          Unfortunately that doesn’t apply when you are on your work computer and need to connect to your environment which is behind a corporate VPN. Thanks for telling me about code-server though, I’ll check that definitely!
