The Daytona VS Code extension aims to deliver a seamless integrated workflow for coders by tightly integrating the development environment management platform, Daytona, with Visual Studio Code. The extension offers key benefits such as tight integration between the development environment and editor, ability to fully manage workspaces from within VS Code, and streamlined workflows similar to connecting to a remote SSH server. It also provides automatic environment setup and port forwarding for collaboration, allowing developers to instantly spin up ready-to-code, sandboxed workspaces. The extension is designed to mirror all core functionalities from the web app dashboard directly in the IDE, enabling easy switching between multiple Daytona installations, viewing workspaces, logs, and collaborating with teammates. Key features include workspace management, teams collaboration, profiles viewing, command handling, and ports management, which enhance productivity and streamline development processes. The extension is available through various channels, including a single commit to GitHub, direct downloads from the repository, and the Open VSX Registry, ensuring a wide availability.
