I’ve found this to be pretty useful when needing to do recursive / multi-file search and replace. Also has bindings to work within terminal text editors like vim and helix.

Uses rust and ripgrep under the hood for speed.

    I’m curious, why would VS Code be installed on the server and not a developers machine?

      The dev’s VSCode application installs a helper package in /root/.vscode-server. Separate copy for every user that connects. It runs a bunch of ‘node’ processes that often stack up more used CPU time than MySQL. I’m not a fan…

        Interesting, I appreciate the explanation.

        It’s crazy how much a single node instance can max out my huge desktop CPU, so I can imagine.
