Tell HN: Productivity hack with github.dev and Chrome custom search engine

4 years ago

I can't believe I am just finding out about https://github.dev a vscode interface for any github repo. For example: https://github.dev/expo/expo

Add a custom search engine in Chrome and you got yourself a quick shortcut to opening any repo in github dev. In the past I would clone repo then open with vs code to monkey around. Now its CMD+L , 'gd expo/expo' to open https://github.dev/expo/expo/
