How has been your experience with code-server so far? I am interested in self-hosting it
I'm also curious about this -- there's a usecase I have that I think fits, but I'm not sure if I'm either barking up the wrong tree, or overthinking it.
What I'd like to do is open up VSCode on any of my computers, make changes to files, save them, and see those reflected when I open VSCode on another PC.
I suspect VSCode container is meant for people who are actually developing and running their code and need an environment catered to that.
Am I better off doing something like saving my files to folder on a network share and then just opening that folder in VSCode on each PC instead? Is that even possible?
Using a network share for that specific usecase may be a great option. I think VSCode server may be more practical for collaborative work or for PCs with limited resources.
