Hey everyone!

I was just wondering why one would use any of the programs I mentioned above instead of VS Code to write Code.

Can someone give me a brief overview of the advantages?

Thanks in advance!

  • There’s a long list of caveats when running VS Code over SSH. By comparison, text editors:

    • Work on Alpine remotes
    • Work on older distributions, and other *NIX systems
    • Have no problems with SSH key passphrases or security keys
    • Only require a few MB of memory
    • When run in tmux are largely resilient to SSH connection issues
