I've got a great setup going with Emacs and Aidermacs[1]. I just can't stand using VS Code, it's impossible to configure to my liking.

Why no linux build? It is just vscode in ts right? And it is an electron app right?

There's a link for Linux at the bottom of the download page, which directs to the releases in GitHub

Any particular reason why they forked VSCode and not Theia?

they always start as open source to bait users. how long until this one also turns into BaitWare?

They first need to substantially grow the user base as we saw with OpenWebUI, only then make an Enterprise offering and switch the license from one day to another.

Already did. Can't wait to hear their super special very important reason why this can't exist as an extension. by ramesh31 4 minutes ago

I created an OSS ai coding platform as well: https://brokk.ai
But it's a different take, Brokk is built to let humans supervise AI more effectively rather than optimizing for humans reading and writing code by hand. So it's not a VS Code fork, it's not really an IDE in the traditional sense at all.
