Workspace

Note

This section is about an advanced feature accessible in VC projects.

A workspace is a special kind of folder accessible in VC projects that is version controlled and is mounted automatically in VC labs. In addition to normal folder operations, workspace supports synchronizing with upstream (remote) services.

Each project member has their workspace. A workspace for the project owner is created during project creation. Other project members may create their own workspace on demand.
