VS Code has traditionally been a desktop IDE built with web technology. A few years back people started patching it, in order to run it in a remote context and to make it accessible through web browsers.

Luckily in 2019 the VS Code team started to refactor its architecture to support a browser-based working mode.

## The scope of this project

This project really only adds the minimal bits required to run VS Code in a server scenario. We have no intention of changing VS Code in any way or adding additional features through this. Feature requests, bug fixes, etc. should go to the upstream repository.
