I worked on adding a web-vscode editor in my project (MCP gateway https://mcp-boss.com). Initially i also spun up a container to provide terminal access, package installation etc. It turned out to be very resource intensive, and the cold-start-up UX sucked. This approach also comes with scaling challenges.
Leaning on CloudFlare Containers seems like a good balance though. But im wondering what the limits are, some packages are very large and require more than just Javascript (e.g node gyp).
(Personally I ended up hosting a web-only VS code served as static files. Luckily i dont need to support Deno syntax so the built-in Typescript language server worked fine.)
