       Show HN: CodeAir - Control VS Code from Your Phone
        
       Hey HN, Inspired by the classic "Compiling" XKCD comic
       (https://3d.xkcd.com/303/), I've built CodeAir (codeair.app) - an
       Android app and VS Code extension that turns your phone into a
       remote control for VS Code.  With CodeAir, you can:  - Control 800+
       VS Code commands right from your phone.  - Send text and image
       files directly into your workspace and even have the images
       transcribed using AI. So imagine taking a snapshot of a piece of
       code from a physical textbook and being directly able to run that
       inside VS Code.  - Request screenshots from VS Code while AFK and
       get them delivered to your phone so you can monitor long builds or
       processes remotely when you're on a coffee break.  - If you've got
       an OpenAI API key, you can even perform QnA over your transferred
       files and images.  I made this tool to help monitor long builds or
       tests when I'm AFK, but it's useful for so much more! It's super
       niche, but I hope some of you find it helpful.  Check it out at
       codeair.app and let me know what you think. Feedback is very
       welcome!
