When I tried the external display mode on my Pixel 8a, I did some development with a bluetooth keyboard, bluetooth trackball and vscode tunneling into my desktop.
So the development wasn't local, but it was sort-of usable. (And the editing is local in any case.)
What do you mean by tunneling here; remote desktop or does vscode run on the 8a?
VSCode runs in Chrome on the Pixel 8a. But it connects to a remote VSCode server via a VSCode tunnel where eg your compiler runs. See https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/tunnels
I had no idea the vscode tunneling stuff worked in the browser. I thought it was SSH. Do they have some sort of WebSocket proxy? Do you have a link to how to set this up?
