Theia IDE is compatible with VS Code APIs and can install and use VS Code extensions. Has additional APIs for customizations not available in VS Code.

Have you tried Theia IDE? Any assessments or experiences to share?

Apparently not. I had to click a few pages into their site for this:

"While Eclipse Theia incorporates certain components from Visual Studio Code, such as the Monaco editor, it is independently developed with a modular architecture and is not a fork of VS Code."

It's on the landing page in the "Extensible and Open" section too.

While Theia incorporates certain components from Visual Studio Code, such as the Monaco editor, it is independently developed with a unique, modular architecture, Theia is not a fork of VS Code.
