mr-kobayashi | 9 years ago | on: Sourcegraph now running on an in-browser VS Code

i don't mean any ill intent about this comment, however that said. i worked something similar, and i strongly feel the direction that SourceGraph is heading in is the correct one.

developing in the browser, especially at large organisations is a huge productivity benefit in addition to cost benefit etc. the pros are endless. just let your mind wonder.

intro -----

the one i worked on, alongside Sourcegraph is available at:

live: https://cloud.bana.io/monaco-go/ repo: https://github.com/mbana/monaco-go

the backend was adjusted somewhat to support a WebSocket connection, besides that, the code was almost written entirely by the folks over at Sourcegraph. please note i do not have funds to pay for the Azure cloud so it might be down, or seem very slow.

i would love to resume development on this seeing as i work at large organisation and i see the huge potentional.

implementation --------------

in my opinion, i think the approach taken in my implementation might be better. there was hardly any custom code aside from stubbing code out to make VScode, or rather, monaco-editor run in the browser.

i will stress, i can and want to continue finishing this and having it land in monaco-editor master but my current job doesn't allow it.

if anyone wants to join me, please do say.
