## What it is
A Neovim plugin that adds VSCode-style remote development and devcontainer support to Neovim over SSH or Docker. It automatically installs and launches Neovim on the remote host, syncs local config, and manages reconnectable sessions.

## Use cases
- edit code on a remote server from local neovim
- develop inside a devcontainer with neovim
- connect neovim to a remote host over ssh
- run neovim against a docker container or image
- sync local neovim config to a remote machine
- reuse past remote neovim sessions

## When to choose
- you want VSCode-like remote development workflows in Neovim
- you work on remote machines or devcontainers and want a managed, reconnectable setup
- your remote host lacks GitHub access and you need offline Neovim installation

## When to avoid
- the project is archived and unmaintained per the README warning
- you develop on Windows or WSL locally, which is not yet supported
- you only need simple SSH file editing without session management

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ssh, developer-tools, file-system, container-runtime
