[Feat]: Possibility to run python GUI based applications, e.g. Tkinter, Open3D, OpenCV, etc. #50

What is your suggestion?

I am currently using Open3D and OpenCV as libraries in python, however these are unable to run without a display output. I've attempted to try and run this through an xserver but have been unsuccessful (unable to connect to display). Would it be possible to add python GUI outputs as a feature to further enhance the python environment within VSCode?

Why do you want this feature?

I am currently undergoing research which includes Open3D and OpenCV libraries which are crucial to the project, my main objective was to also work on this via android, to have a portable developer environment without the need of my PC.

Are there any workarounds to get this functionality today?

One workaround, which I would like to avoid is running a desktop environment via termux and running python scripts through that. However I would prefer remaining in one desktop environment (DEX) rather than having to generate a second one over it just to run on a virtual linux machine.

If there are any suggestions as to how to get the output of a python gui running via VSCode for Android, I am more than willing to try.

xvnc with NoVNC or KasmVNC which uses a webview that you can open in the editor... another option is to run an xserver, like xserversdl or Termux:X11, but this needs a split screen or desktop windowing (eg DeX). An alternative option is to use deVStudio, which is using a complete VNC environment
