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 :)

Is there Source Control integration?

Not yet, but that's absolutely on the near-term roadmap!

Are there plans to add react-native?

Your blog post 404s for me :(

That aside, it astonished me how quickly intellisense popped up. This is great.

I believe Microsoft hosts a similar app iirc

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

There's a decent IDE-in-a-browser for React Native at https://snack.expo.io/

On mobile: If I try to uncomment by hitting backspace on phone keyboard, instead of erasing it duplicates the word left to the marker. :)

Apparently it doesn't have Sass Support which kind of makes it not viable for me. Otherwise pretty great for hacking up small projects when you don't want to setup your whole environment yourself.
