Type: Feature Request

hi guys, i am an android system developer, using Remote -SSH to connect ubuntu server. Mostly i need to do 3 things : a. open remote folder using vscode remote -ssh , edit code b.using remote bash to build the image c. push the image file to local device using local bash

        The question is: i could'nt find any way to open a local terminal when in Remote-ssh mode

For (c), perhaps you could try using scp to copy your files from the remote machine back to your local machine.

um . yes scp maybe works. In most condiction , we need to open an local terminal to run some command. I think if we to do all things in on window , it would be excellent! For now, what confusing me is there is no way to start an local terminl window when in Remove-ssh mode

Device topo Terminal menu

Thanks for the diagram. I'd suggest opening a second VS Code window (not connected to your remote machine) to access a local terminal. Conceptually, I think it's helpful to think of your first VS Code window as though you were typing directly on the remote workstation. Using a tool like scp you can copy items between the two machines.
