Using Visual Studio Code with a Raspberry Pi (Raspbian)

[Dave Johnson]

In this tutorial, I explore how to effectively use Visual Studio Code for Node.js development on a Raspberry Pi by creating a network file share that allows coding on a Windows machine while executing the code natively on the Pi. The process involves setting up a Samba share on the Raspberry Pi, mapping it as a network drive on Windows, and then using Visual Studio Code to write and run Node.js code seamlessly. This approach leverages the power of a desktop environment while maintaining the ability to interact with the Raspberry Pi's hardware, making it a versatile solution for developers.
