I use it instead of carrying a laptop between my 3 teaching gigs. \n\nStart up a Ubuntu Amazon instance and run:\n\n`bash \u003c(curl https://rhildred.github.io/devtdesktop/toaster.sh) \u003cyour desired username here\u003e`\n\nSadly I can't find a way to get visual studio code without using chrome. I did install Chrome as a way of getting Visual Studio Code and instructions for most everything else. Download Visual Studio Code with chrome and install it with gdebi. Something like `sudo gdebi ~/Downloads/code........deb`\n\nAlso sadly, I tried this with Ubuntu 18.04 and it was very slow. I tried the exact thing with 16.04 and it is fine. With Ubuntu 16.04 there was a hack that I needed to get vscode working. I had to edit the elf file `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxcb.so.1.1.0` and change the one occurence of the word `BIG` to `FIG`. You couldn't make something like this up.\n\nMate with xrdp and Ubuntu 16.04 doesn't deal with `alt-tab` properly. I couldn't find an acceptable fix.\n\nOnce VSCode was installed I also installed extensions ritwickdey.liveserver and streetsidesoftware.code-spell-checker.\n\nI used `nvm ls-remote` to find the latest nvm version. Then I did `nvm install x.x.x` to install it.\n\nSadly, there are problems with this. Xrdp auto-install breaks it so I need to revert every time I use it. My plan is to shut this down in favour of my rhlab.io project built on docker-compose-ui. I really just need \"edit in vscode on the web\" for that to work. It looks like that is do-able by replacing node builtins used by vscode like fs with shim modules like fs-remote.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frhildred%2Fdevtdesktop","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Frhildred%2Fdevtdesktop","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frhildred%2Fdevtdesktop/lists"}
