Is installing VSCode locally "self hosting"? I thought that was how everybody did it. I just run the executable - no Docker or anything - for coding, testing etc. but I'm not sure what a VSCode "server" would even do.

It can be a few things.

It could be remote workspaces like GitHub codespaces.

But it could also be simpler: vscode is a web app, the native app you install is just an electron wrapper around the web app; so you can host it on a server an use it in the browser.
