Not just another IDE, my friend. VS Code is truly fantastic.

As there are already other projects using vscode to produce an online IDE, I think "just another" is quite fair.
Ironically given that VSCode was born as online IDE to start with.
Certainly the base editor did, but was it crossed over the (vague and subjectively defined) line between an advanced text editor to a full IDE by the point MS forked/integrated it for VS Code? My history is hazy here.
Monaco was not not the basis for VSCode, still exists as basis for Github codespaces and Azure based devenvs.
