This looks really cool, just one quick question - I'm not really interested in all that Angular/React stuff, I just want my favourite VS Code in the browser (as a 'thin' client between my browser and my VPS, for example). Is this thing modular to allow for this, or is this meant to be just an Angular/React tool? Thanks!


Thanks! And great question — I don't think we're not targeting that sort of use case unfortunately, but we will allow you to do full git in browser pretty soon here. Right now we only support React & Angular but we're opening up custom templates that will let you configure any loaders, compilers, etc :)


It would be nice to be able to launch it with a blank template as it seems to be flexible enough to work with anything that doesn't need config e.g. Vue (https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-ng1kyn?file=index.js)

Sourcegraph has been able to do this albeit with some modifications. So it should be possible


We're trying to make an initial implementation of with the VScode Monaco editor happen in GitLab 9.5 on August 22, see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/12198


Vs code was written first as a browser based editor before it evolved into what it is now. I believe you can still run parts of it in the browser, but I can't try to find it now since I'm on mobile
