  1. Introduce the capability to browse and open local filesystem directories, as available in vscode.dev, where users can open directories and not just individual files, directly from the browser interface.

    Current behavior in vscode.dev: Users can interact with the local filesystem through the browser, opening folders and files as if working locally, without uploading content to the server, which effectively bridges local and cloud development environments.

    Impact: Implementing this would reduce context-switching and improve user experience by providing a seamless development workflow that integrates local and cloud-based resources.

    Technical Suggestion: Adopt a File System Access API strategy to enable secure and…

  2. I think it would be so much better if we can see who is online in the project, where is their cursor, and what are their working in. Like in google docs. So we can collaborating making a project simulteneously. No need to worry about the commit and conflict.

  7. I am working on GitLab.com with all of my Projects and Repos. I use heavily GitLab CI for my builds there. Please make it possible to work on a GitLab.com Public and Private repo.
    The best thing would of course be also to have the possibility to have Self Managed GitLab repos in Google IDX.

  9. Please add OOTB support for running containers using Podman, with the possibility to use containers that utilize systemd


    While adding

      packages = [
        pkgs.podman
      ];
    

    podman will not run. Some of the issues might be related to the nix package, but some are related to the environment.

    The default policy is missing and no /var/tmp. Had to fix this as follows:

          onCreate = {
            # this is to fix Podman: https://github.com/gbraad-devenv/idx/issues/3
            setup-podman = ''
              mkdir /etc/containers/
              cat >> /etc/containers/policy.json <<EOF
              { "default" : [ { "type": "insecureAcceptAnything"} ]}
              EOF
              mkdir /var/tmp
            '';
          };
    

    After these minor changes, podman can…

  10. A service released in 2023 should not require third-party cookies to be allowed.
    If not for the privacy and usability for its users, then for the project itself, since many browsers are phasing out support for third-party cookies. Firefox already blocks them and chrome will soon do the same:

  16. Introduction
    In the current software development landscape, efficiency and productivity are critical success factors for projects. Google’s IDX Project already offers a robust infrastructure; however, introducing a new feature that enables the configuration of a "default workshop" could revolutionize how developers interact with the platform. This proposal aims to simplify and optimize the process of creating and importing projects, ensuring that relevant extensions and themes are automatically applied.

    Proposal
    The proposal consists of allowing users to configure a default workshop that includes a predefined selection of extensions and themes. When creating or importing new projects, this configuration will be automatically…

  17. right now, installing python packages using pip not natively supported as it results in altering the default file system outlined by idx. pip is essential if something is providing Python support by default.

    I know I can find a workaround using nix and vice versa still installing a package using pip shouldn't be this hard. Because it is extremely fundamental. Also, Google's choice to keep Python 3.10.X and 3.11.X a bad idea. Since I use some legacy libraries that uses 3.8.X and I am happy with that. the support should include older Python versions or a way to install custom…
