Microsoft is previewing Visual Studio Code for the Web, a code editor that runs entirely in the browser. The Register: The post introducing the new service was put up yesterday but is returning “page not found” at the time of writing, so possibly was published prematurely. But it is expected to return soon, since the technology looks the same as that already introduced by Microsoft-owned GitHub as the web-based editor.
The difference is that GitHub’s version only works in a GitHub repository, where it is opened by pressing the dot key. By contrast, Microsoft stated: “Everyone can use VS Code for the Web for free at https://vscode.dev to quickly open and browse source code hosted on GitHub and on your local machine (and soon on Azure Repos), and make and commit lightweight changes.”
