How about installing VS Code on a #GitHub Windows runner? This allows you to do this unattended.

runs-on: windows-latest
steps:
- uses: gbraad-actions/install-vscode-action@main
- name: Run VS Code serve-web
run: |
code serve-web --host 0.0.0.0 --without-connection-token

Handy with #Tailscale when you want to debug the build on a runner. Pr even to quickly enable RDP and log in.

In #VSCode, the code lenses now include an outline around parts of it (such as "🅁un 🅃ests"). I'm not sure if this is from #Rust analyzer or VS Code itself, as I updated everything last night.

Is there a way to get rid of this outline (likely a border in the CSS)? It is distracting to the point that I'm considering turning off code lenses if it can't be disabled.

"Most guides to docs like code, even the ones for non-devs, assume you have some developer knowledge: maybe you're already using version control, or you've encountered build pipelines before, or you're working alongside developers.

This guide is for the people who read that paragraph and wished it came with a glossary. This is docs like code for people who don't know what git is and have never installed VS Code.

This post explains terminology and concepts, to help you get a mental model of what's going on. If you prefer to dive in and pick up concepts as you go, skip straight to the tips in How to learn, and come back to the conceptual info as needed."

Heute endlich mal Zeit und Lust gehabt um einen Beispiel #MCP Server mit #CoPilot in #VSCode zu testen. Ok, funktioniert. Bin jetzt ein bisschen ernüchtert und weiss noch nicht so recht, ob ich damit was in der IDE anfangen kann

Dear #dotnet and #mcp community. I just found examples on how to add a mcp server as extension to #vscode. But is this also possible in #visualstudio ?

I am not yet faster at #helix than I am at #vscode , but dammit I'd rather use something developed to be completely free and open source, unlike vscode.

I considered alternatives, like Zed, but they have a CLA for their contributors, which in my eyes leaves room for a potential close sourcing in the distant future.

Why is F# so little used and why is the community so small? Actually, every time I play with F# (especially in conjunction with https://ionide.io/ #vscode extension for F#), I have to say that F# is a really fun programming language. In combination with FSI, Ionide and Type Inference it often feels like a dynamic language. You can use many different styles to programme with F#, but what I particularly like is that Railway

I gave #cursor a try yesterday and I have no idea why it is so popular. its barely a wrapper around #vscode, and you'd get more mileage out of just installing a few decent extensions in that instead

For days I've been trying to find a solution to #VSCode / #VSCodium not adding the environment variable I added to the workspace… I literally tried every variation under the son, added it to any launch.json, settings.json and anything else I could find, but it just would. Not. Read it. And without it it won't find the Python modules if the conda venv.

Is there some magical thing I lack or is this program is plain awful?

Created a very simple proxy and integration /wrapper for @Cockpit and #vscode

Will publish this with instructions soon, as at the moment I am "it works", now just to clean it up and add some instructions.
