Has anyone reverse engineered the VSCode Live Sharing protocol for emacs yet? (alien.top)

Had a situation this arvo when I had to pair program with someone and I forgot to bring my mouse to work. Having to run startx and then start vscode is a bit jarring and a line-of-thought breaker for me.

It's unclear what your talking about. Add some detail.

Not OP but VSCode has a plugin called Live Sharing that allows remote collaboration on a workspace, with independent cursors, navigation, files opened, etc. It's fantastic, honestly, and it's one of the few things that'll prompt me to open vsc over emacs when the need arises. I believe OP is asking whether there is an emacs package allowing interop with it so his pair can use vsc and her can continue to work in emacs.

Crdt.el? Of course, both are completely tied to their respective editors.

Not very relevant to OP, but togetherly also works well.

Where are you working that you have no mouse available and have to carry it with you? Are chairs available there?

It would be great if someone made this! But it seems like it’s not possible because they have the project closed source and no official protocol specification.🤔
