Q: Can you ssh or remote connect to a workspace
I appreciate that I can use apt to install Linux tools. If I prefer not to work in the browser, is it possible to SSH into a workspace within the Linux container?

Thank you for your interest. By design, we don't allow inbound connections other than over https.
If it is critical we can still work with you to enable SSH but would you be able to elaborate why SSH is the preference? Via a web-browser you can still get access to your workspace via shell or DOS-like managers such as midnight commander if a GUI (provided by VS Code) is not your preference.
Thanks,
donnieyangPLUSSometimes, I prefer to not use a browser. No big deal.
PaulspecialPLUSI also agree to have SSH capability due to dev process is much easier and using less local resource, in addition to not every place allow to access the container through website because of company's firewall policy, therefore, it's usually can be easily bypass through SSH outbound for dev process.
