This isn't a comparison just a title and misleading bullets. Lightrun supports all these things and so much more.

* Lightrun supports web UI via VSCode.dev support

* Lightrun can be installed on-prem

* It supports all these 3 platforms and .net soon

* It supports SSO and quite a few features required by fortune 100 companies

sorry for being misleading, I was not trying to do so. About the first one I was referring to our own web UI, considering the plugins you are right. 2. one they weren't used to ship with a 3rd party IDE afaik, that's why I've said full on-prem with web ui. don't remember saying anything about the 3rd and the 4th, and it wasn't supposed to be something offensive to our competitors

The site says:

> Sidekick vs Lightrun Why Choose Sidekick

Which implies the following bullet points are thing that sidekick has and Lightrun doesn't. Number 3 and 4 correspond to:

* Comprehensive language coverage (NodeJS, Java, Python)

All supported by Lightrun

* Enterprise features such as SSO, Workspace management, and more

Not sure what workspace management means but Lightrun supports a wide range of enterprise features and is deployed in Fortune 100 and major security conscious enterprises.
