Code-server: How to install Remote Development extension?

[lujo777]

I tried using search to find this extension, but it not found.
Also, there is no extension from microsoft.

code-sever has it's own marketplace and this is not equivalent with the vscode's one. There are no packages from microsoft here because of licencing issues. However u can install extensions manually. Download the .vsix file from vscode marketplace (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/vscode) upload it to your server and in code-server u will find a menuitem at extensions section "Install from vsix...". That's all.

I tried to install ms-vscode-remote.vscode-remote-extensionpack-0.20.0.vsix as described. But i get the warning on installed expansion page:
"This extension has defined that it cannot run on the remote server"

Did someone manage to make this extension working on code-server?

I have installed it using the vsix but the tab does not appear in the sidebar

@HarvsG The remote extensions appear to be designed in a way that won't work in code-server. Check out https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/1315 for more info.
