		mjw1007 on July 13, 2021 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Emacs Tramp over AWS SSM APIs TRAMP is more than just opening and writing files: it runs VCS operations remotely, which is very helpful. https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-mode/page/remote/ suggests that LSP under TRAMP is basically there, though I haven't had occasion to try it.

It can run everything remotely. If you are using eshell, you can

    cd /sshx:host:
    ls
    any remote command

It is quite impressive how well it works. Most lsp modes are tramp aware, such that completion and tag jumping will also do the right thing.
