  3. It would be good to implement templates since it is another alternative to flutter. It would also be good to implement .idx/dev.nix to be automatically loaded when cloning a git repository

  5. 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…

  8. I want to connect to IDX from something other than the browser. Ideally, this could be my local VSCode instance or it could be over SSH from a terminal running neovim. I would like the power of a cloud workstation from my favorite environments.

  9. I've been teaching students using IDX these days, more or less for fun and also to test how well the IDX AI performs w.r.t React.js. A feature that I use sometimes on the local machine is Live Share extension.

    A brief description of the extension -
    The Live Share Extension on VSCode enables other dev to work on the same instance of VSCode on multiple files, which is extremely useful when creating small scale projects.
    I understand that it is developed by a different company (Microsoft) but it will be helpful specifically for teaching purposes.
    There can be an alternative…

  10. Currently, "Import a repo" (when creating a new workspace) only works for cloning an entire repo.

    The ability to import a specific directory/path from a repo would be helpful, since many web frameworks have official examples in directories in a single repo.

    Example:
    - https://github.com/withastro/astro/tree/main/examples (Astro)
    - https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/examples (Next.js)

    Other online IDEs support this ability, such as Stackblitz, CodeSandbox.

  12. Please include support for the iOS simulator within IDX for Flutter projects. This addition would greatly simplify the process of testing and debugging iOS apps directly within IDX, eliminating the need for external tools or complex setups. If iOS support is disabled, kindly provide a reason for the decision. Thank you for considering this request.

  14. Automatic intelligent code checking. On the example of Quokka (plugin for VSCode) only that it would be interactive and automatically prompt you. For example, if you have an error in some place, it will highlight it and can solve it yourself or will describe why it happens.

  15. 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. You may have separate projects (with their own build process, etc.) that you still want to see and control from inside the same workspace. This type of project structure is one we want to better support.

  17. IDX Desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux), either:

    1. Electron / Tauri wrapper
    2. Or React Native desktop app

    For better avoidance of browser keyboard shortcuts / better native + OS integration

    I'm a big supporter of web standards, but running an editor in a browser tab or even as a desktop PWA is often lacking / janky (judging based on the VS Code editor on github.dev)

    Alternative Considered: PWA

    If you manage to achieve parity by fixing the UX problems and integrating natively, making it work without downsides, I'll be on board with running IDX as a PWA!

  18. Intergrated terminal lacks functionality\ies of a local terminal. Can we add support for its SSH session? Maybe a documentation on how to do that would be helpful :)

  20. If you are building a backend API, we would like Project IDX to support creating them across popular endpoints. We would also like to explore integration with services like Postman to make testing these endpoints easier.
