Self hosted browser IDE that supports C# and runs on Windows (lemmy.world)

My server is still windows based, which I know is a bit of a sin at this point, but just bear with me please

There seem to be a few options avaliable, but I can't figure out if they all both support windows and C#, and a lot of the information I'm finding is linux specific.

Why? Well, I like to make little roguelikes and card battlers on my phone in pure c# code, it's a fun way to pass the time that isn't doom scrolling. A lot of my free time at work is spent sitting on a boat just waiting with no access to my PC

I've been using a C# ide on my phone, but Android as become such a fucking nightmare, most stuff seems locked down for some reason, and I can't access the local files to sync with syncthing to move it my PC when I do want to work with my PC.

So I'd like to use a browser based solution that will just store everything locally on my server

You can run vscode in a docker container. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/devcontainers/containers

i think this is the best solution

Linux Docker Containers can run on Windows using WSL and if you later migrate the host to linux, you can also run the same container there natively

OP is looking for a browser based IDE. I don't think vscode has anything like that.

And as many others have mentioned, it can be self-hosted as well.

Also fun side note:

As long as you are logged into a GitHub account and in a desktop browser you can press the . key on your keyboard while viewing any GitHub repo to open it in vscode web.
