sshcode is a Go CLI that automatically installs and runs code-server on a remote machine over SSH, opening VS Code in a Chrome app-mode browser window. It syncs local VS Code settings and extensions to the remote server on each connection.

Use cases

  • run vs code on a remote server over ssh
  • edit code on a remote machine with local-like experience
  • sync vscode extensions and settings to a server
  • develop on a remote dev box from a browser
  • launch code-server without manual setup

When to choose

  • you want a lightweight CLI to spin up remote VS Code sessions on Linux x86_64 servers
  • you want automatic rsync of VS Code settings and extensions to remote hosts

When to avoid

  • the project is deprecated in favor of code-server's install script
  • your remote server runs Alpine/musl libc
  • you need Windows remote server support
