Remote Server Development would be nice.
E.G like Microsoft’s SSH extension on VSCode.
Putting all the resources on a remote linux server and develope it over there so other developers can see live what you’re working on and can give instant feedback, without having to git pull first and startup a new server.
This is way out of scope also as multiple users working on one file (especially on a potentially live instance???) leads to infinite weird problems.
You’re not meant to work on an existing deployed server tree that’s also managed outside of the editor tool chain using the editor tool chain.
However, we are working on some other ideas to simplify collaborative development and testing with multiple clients.

Microsoft actually managed to hot-reload the file when someone saves it and automatically merges it with that file in another editor.

I mean yea, nobody should ever work live on an deployed server unless it’s a development server for instant feedback.

Great to know!
Yeah, and their code-server stuff is closed-source and ‘only for Visual Studio-branded products’, so we can’t use it verbatim sadly.
However, since Theia already does ‘remote’ backends we might consider some way of hooking it up to our users.cfx.re reverse TCP server so people can do (scoped) development on the same workspace, maybe?
