> you’re running arbitrary third party code on client machines without any form of sandboxing. This is a level of security you would not deploy into Azure, so why is “run arbitrary 3p code on someone else’s machine” appropriate for VSCode?

More and more, I am starting to think I need to run my development environment (for both work and personal projects) in a VM.

I am on MacOS, so UTM or Parallels would work pretty well I think. Sadly, I think my work explicitly forbids us from running VMs or accessing our services from them.

VSCode in cloud would be great, GitHub tried something similar with GitHub.dev , I haven’t tried it in a while but it didn’t feel quite ready at the time, maybe things have changed

Try https://vscode.dev

You can append a Github repo to the URL to open it: https://vscode.dev/https://github.com/facebook/react
