With eglot and lsp-mode emacs, for me, has feature parity with vscode for c++ local development. Unfortunately for remote work tramp is still a nightmare and vscode far ahead.

But VSCode has a very different model than Tramp: a remote server part, not just remote file access.

Technically you can run an Emacs server remotely, and connect to it with the UI client. But the setup is going to be much more involved.

I'd like to be wrong about this, but after some investigation I've conclused that this is not the case. The Emacs client/server model assumes that the client and server are on the same host. It doesn't work over the network.

Any pointers on how to get started with this?
