  • My desktop environment in the browser now has a VSCode!
    2 projects | /r/programming | 11 Apr 2023
    Looks great! I've been using straight Monaco in my desktop environment site for years now but might have to consider this finally. I hadn't looked into this vscode-web progress but it looks like they've moved quite far. I wonder if it's being built via https://github.com/Felx-B/vscode-web, any comment? I haven't had time to dig further yet.
  • The Visual Studio Code Server
    12 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 8 Jul 2022
    The server component was already open sourced (this is the -same- server/remote component that was previously powering all of the remote development extensions). It's here in the main vscode repo (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/tree/main/src/vs/server).

    There's vscode.dev (running vscode in the browser). That's apparently just a specific web compilation of the main vscode repo. There are alternate web compilations sitting around (for example https://github.com/Felx-B/vscode-web).

  • Is it possible to host a discord bot 24/7 on GitHub Codespaces?
    2 projects | /r/Discord_Bots | 24 May 2022
    Github Codespaces is intended for development in the cloud, not hosting. If you're looking for a low cost or free hosting option, you should get a VPS to host your bots and other apps on. A VPS would run 24/7 on a server in the cloud, even if you close your connection to the VPS. You can also develop on the same VPS using a web IDE such as VSCode Web or Theta IDE.
