Remote Development Environment Setup

Remote Environment Setup (CSCI 330, 362, 370, and 380)

Follow the steps below to install the Visual Studio Code (VS Code) editor. VS Code supports extensions to add functionality, like remote machine access, code completion, syntax highlighting, and compilation. Install the “Remote - SSH” extension to give you access to our pool of remote machines and all the software they contain (e.g., packages for development using C/C++, OCaml, Haskell, x86 assembly, Java, Lisp, and Python). VS Code alone will not give you access to these development tools.

1. Download Visual Studio Code and then run the installer.

2. Install the “Remote - SSH” extension and configure it to use one of our machines. Follow these instructions.
