Continue developing of "Code with me", please!
Hello! I found that it could be extra usefull feature, but looks like that not as you expect. We have a big problem in Ukraine with electricity now, so I should switch between pc and laptop enough often. I am finding good solution of cloud working and I don't very want to run my own cloud server yet. And solutions like Dropbox etc have not ideal working with pycharm with saving of it's system files for example. And I don't have good access to internet after swtiching off electricity, so large files will download very slowly. Also I don't want to push not ready commits to repo.
I was exited when saw "Code with me" because I thank that I will able to connect to my laptop from pc and I will not have any differences. But at first, I should download large Client to connect from PC, at second it is not fully support really full access. For example, I can't pass to localhost in django http://127.0.0.1:8000/. I can't have direct access to db, git and another things, that do my job enough pure.
Anyway, your feature could communicate laptop and pc enough good. Would be nice to see developing of this feature.

Hi, and thank you for your kind words. We appreciate it.
As for your use-case - we're working on getting rid of the "download" step in these issues:

Right now, you may try Remote Development: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2023.1/jetbrains-gateway.html
It's in the "beta" state and not perfect yet, but at least you'll be able to create a port forwarding for your application to the local workstation:
