## Goal The open source VS Code project does not include a module for interacting with a file system. The implementations you see on vscode.dev and elsewhere are closed-source or custom implementations. We need to mount the files and track changes within the Web IDE and to do so, we need to implement a custom filesystem module within our VS Code instance. ## Approach Initially, we explored the use of a git-like filesystem abstraction, and possibly isomorphic git, but ran into issues loading larger projects. We are currently planning to use OverlayFS to interface with the file system.
