This is exactly why we use jupyter-rfb, I often have large datasets on a remote cluster computer and we perform remote rendering.

I'm in the same boat as the person you replied to, but have zero experience with remote plotting other that doing static plots in in a remote session in the interactive window provided by VS Code's python extension. Would this also work there, or would I have to start using jupyter notebooks?

non-jupyter notebook implementations have their quirks, eventually we hope to make a more universal jupyter-rfb kind of library, perhaps using anywidget. Anywidget is awesome: https://github.com/manzt/anywidget

People have used fastplotlib and jupyter-rfb in vscode, but it can be troublesome and we don't currently have the resources to figure out exactly why.
