  • Let's say I want to take a deeper dive into the code for https://github.com/ogham/exa [1]. It turns out github has been working on new functionality that allows me to open I can open up that repo in a VS Code instance running entirely in your browser. I simply need to either:

  • dev

    Press the . key on any repo (by github)

  • Swap .com with .dev in the URL. For example, this repo https://github.com/github/dev becomes http://github.dev/github/dev
