VSCode - current and future usage

[adriatic]

Thank you @jeliasson for such a detailed response. To answer your question

@jeliasson

I’m not sure I fully understand what you mean by “linux” mode

I meant this: Windows Subsystem for Linux Installation Guide for Windows 10. Without trying your setup, I would guess that it not much different from mine, where I am running powershel in the “dual” (split) terminal as shown above

Note that I can change terminal tu run powershell (with VSCode settings only) in order to avoid running the VSCode in “Linux on Windows” - just as you wrote above

Here is VSCode with Redwood on the Windows file system. Pay attention to the terminal path with native access to the host file system (mapped to /mnt/c by default) and that we are not running in WSL integrated.

It is possible that your and my settings are identical (invoking the same OS API). Not being sure whether that is a true statement and remembering Aldo’s difficulties to run his VSCode extension in a “hybrid Windows / Linux” system, where VSCode might be missing some of the Windows API. I really like the Aldo’s extension described here. ( an API to explore a Redwood Project as a graph (like an AST) , which powers diagnostics and defines conventions).
