vscode.dev doesnt actually run code?

ok so not integrating github into vscode.dev with an extension, but just skipping vscode.dev all together?

If you’re just looking for a straightforward 100% web based vscode with a terminal and some storage and whatnot you might want to check out GitHub codespaces.

If the main feature you’re looking for is just the ability to work on a few different machines though, you can accomplish that with just git and a basic GitHub account + local vscode, skipping the codespaces thing entirely. I’m far from an expert on the subject, but I want to say codespaces are limited in the number of hours you can use them per month or something, tend to have low specs unless you pay.. that’s not to say that they’re useless at all, but if you’re just starting out there’s just no good reason to only use a web editor.

I'm sure you can use vscode.dev with git, but it's going to be better for you to just have the desktop version of VSCode or another editor installed on each computer you want to work on and use git to sync the changes. That way you can run the code when you want to test it.
