The remote development extension is a life saver for me. In my use case is I have a remote headless cluster node with a hardware accelerator. My work laptop is Windows based and the server is Linux based (locate two thousand miles away). The language server needs to be able to resolve symbols in the libraries and the library headers installed on the Linux system. If I just copied the source to my Windows environment, it would fail to provide syntax highlighting and flag too many false errors. I would not be able to run integrated unit tests, etc. Remote development allows me to develop on my laptop as if everything was local without needing to create elaborate build scripts or hacks with minimal latency.
