Yes to #1 and #2. For #3, we’ll be adding a “Basic” SKU soon, that includes 2 cores and 4 GB RAM. Would that be sufficient for your use cases? You can track the progress of this enhancement here: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/vsonline/issues/54. #4: Thanks for the feedback! I’ll look into improving that text this week. #5: Yep! You can track the progress of this enhancement here: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/vsonline/issues/192.

Safari on iPad is a critical scenario for us, however, it isn’t currently “officially” supported. Yet! Stay tuned to this GitHub issue, where we’ll provide updates on this very soon: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/vsonline/issues/33. Regarding requirements, you could absolutely run the web editor from a Chromebook! Being able to utilize low-powered devices, while using real-world dev tools, is something we’re excited to enable with this service.

Hey All! I’m a PM on the Visual Studio Online team (as well as Live Share and IntelliCode), and we’re extremely excited to have more developers try out the product. Our goal is to dramatically reduce the cost of setup/onboarding, enable better team/classroom collaboration, and further support remote development. We believe that having on-demand, cloud-powered dev environments, that are accessible from VS Code and the web, provides a huge step towards achieving that. Let us know if you have any questions/comments/feedback, since we’re very keen to begin working with the broader developer community, and learning how we can continue to improve. Otherwise, check out the service (https://aka.ms/vso), and then let us know what you think (https://GitHub.com/microsoftdocs/vsonline).
