Working Remotely with Visual Studio Code and SSH

Visual Studio Code (VSCode) is a text editor that is particularly well suited for programming in a variety of languages, including Python. It also provides a way to remotely connect to the Linux computers on campus, via SSH (Secure Shell). You can use it to do your work for CAPP 30121, and you should especially consider it if the Virtual Desktop is running slowly for you.
