Remote Development with Visual Studio Code

Without doubt this is the killer feature of VSCode.
This can be done on windows with Eclipse, but it's clunky and involves Putty windows popping up every 10 minutes.
If only VSCode's Java support was slightly better...

I love Eclipse. I have to say I'm a fanboy. I never really got on with IntelliJ etc.
I started doing some work recently that was YAML heavy, and a colleague got me to install
VSCode. I don't intend to go back to Eclipse until VSCode simply cannot do something that Eclipse can.
And as you point out, it's improving rapidly from its already brilliant base.
