VSCode is JS outside the browser. It seems that companies such as Microsoft, Saleforce, want to leverage their existing JS tools.


VSCode is an entire web browser (Electron packaged Chromium). It even ships with "Simple Browser" built in, which is just a web view.

Perhaps a more direct example is Node's/Bun's ability to package a JS/TS project into a single binary with only the JS engine browsers use rather than the whole thing.
