The front-end consisted of all UI code, while the server ran the extensions and exposed an API to the front-end for file access and all UI needs.\n\nOver time, Microsoft added support to VS Code to run it on the web. They have made the front-end open source, but not the server. As such, code-server v2 (and later) uses the VS Code front-end and implements the server. You can find this here."
