relying on local machine

[gsmachado]

Hello,

This is more a question than anything else.

So, is there a way to rely on tools installed in my local machine instead of docker (e.g., docker.io/algorand/stable:3.0.1)?

My use case is: I would like to run the vscode and plugin already in a virtualized env.

@qftgtr can you shed some light here? 😄

My question is simple: is there a way to point the extension to communicate to an algod instance locally installed? In other words, I would like to control the lifecycle of the algod, not relying on any kind of docker-compose/docker tools at all.
