Google Colab is Coming to VS Code- Google Developers Blog

Summary
Introduced the Google Colab extension for Visual Studio Code, enabling users to connect local notebooks to Colab runtimes (including Pro-tier GPUs/TPUs) directly within the VS Code editor. This bridges the gap between VS Code's development environment and Colab's notebook execution and compute resources, supporting workflows where notebooks are part of larger projects or Git repositories.
