Set the default editor |
On the settings page, you can set your editor preference so that any newly created codespaces are opened automatically in either {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} for Web or the {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} desktop application.
If you want to use {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} as your default editor for {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %}, you need to install {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} and the {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %} extension for {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}. For more information, see the download page for {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} and the {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %} extension on the {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} marketplace.
Setting your default editor
{% data reusables.user_settings.access_settings %} {% data reusables.user_settings.codespaces-tab %}
- Under "Editor preference", select the option you want.
If you choose {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %}, {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} will automatically open in the desktop application when you next create a codespace. You may need to allow access to both your browser and {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} for it to open successfully.
