v0.2.0
SSH Mode
This release includes a new --ssh flag you can pass to the tode cli:
# from your local shell
tode --ssh <ssh arguments>
This is the new recommended way to use terminal-code over ssh.
Previously, the only way to run terminal-code over ssh was running tode in the machine you were ssh'd into. This had some drawbacks:
- every frame drawn by vscode needed to be sent over the network
- all user input had to be sent over the network before vscode could respond
- it missed out on some extra optimizations
By using the new --ssh option, terminal-code only runs the backend on your remote machine, and runs the frontend on your local device, allowing most interactions to be ~instant. Under the hood terminal-code proxies network requests made by the vscode frontend over ssh to a vscode backend installed on the remote machine.
