Which cloud server? I’d be interested to do the same although I have achieved similar a while back with a Pi 3bin a few different continents, which still works well 
This morning, I set up OpenVPN on a cloud server and connected my laptop and desktop computers to it. Then I added the Remote Explorer extension to VS Code on my laptop, and it now just works as if it's running on my desktop machine, with Scala, Metals and Fury, all over SSH.

I created a tiny Google Cloud Platform Compute Engine instance and installed OpenVPN on it, manually. There's probably an easier way, but I like to know what I'm doing.

Y THO? Is your laptop slower than a tiny GCE instance?

No, but sometimes it's not in the same place as my desktop, and I want to pick up from exactly where I was working on my desktop machine.

Now we can go back to uploading files via FTP and having the code deployed immediately, right?

Maybe he's using sshfs? However, I'm not sure what Jon wants to do. Is it about opening an IDE on an always-on computer so that we can always pick up where we left off?

All apart from the Google cloud server I used to run OpenVPN.
