Find more details on how to use it with CSC's computing environments in our Developing scripts remotely tutorial.

Warning

While connecting to CSC computing environment with VS Code is possible, it is prone to connection issues and other problems. Thus, we recommend using other ways to connect to CSC supercomputers. If you need to use VS Code on HPC, please consider the VS Code applications available in the supercomputer web interfaces.
