We are looking for updated documentation on how we could implement Python intelisense in our integration of monaco editor in our react app.
There is a lot of outdated information and we are not even sure it is possible? Most discussions mention using a python language server, but some even say the microsoft PLS does not even work for this.
Any more up-to-date documentation available please?

Is there any way to run a version of VS Code inside a browser without a server? (inside a React or Angular app). Something like an enhanced version of the monaco editor.
Of course that means it will have some missing functionalities.
If not, are there any other options?
Try this https://securingsincity.github.io/react-ace/
its something of the same king what you want
As far as I could find, it is possible to run VSCode in the browser (since we have vscode.dev), but there doesn't seem to be anyway to deploy it yourself yet?
This Github issue is probably what you want, but there isn't any information there (or on the repo) yet.
It does strongly suggest that https://github.com/microsoft/vscode is the version used for vscode.dev, so there might be things to be found there, until official instructions/embedding is possible.
I think it depends on how you treat vscode.
if it is just a editor software, there'll be a lot of .
For you customerization purpose, it sounds something like 'https://github.com/cdr/code-server'
Not sure if it helps, but you can try looking up gitpod.io. It opens up a visual studio code instance on your browser with options of installing extensions as well.
Use the link like gitpod.io/#https://github.com/username/repo-name
You can possibly use Gitpod self-host, https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod or https://github.com/gitpod-io/openvscode-server they both have documentation on how to create your own version of VSCode for the web, however, as I've never tried to create one myself, I don't know if it accomplishes your specific use case.
I am totally new to creating extensions in VS Code, and all the official examples of extensions are written in Typescript/Javascript, which I have no experience with. Is it possible to create VS Code extensions in other languages, such as Python or C++?
If so, could anyone point me to any resources to get me started?
It is possible by creating a C++ module for Node.js, which can then be loaded like any other node module. Of course, some glue code written in JS or TS is necessary to register the extension and translate calls to/from vscode.
I've gone this way in my ANTLR4 extension, but gave up eventually, because of the troubles I had due to incompatible dependencies (you have to make sure the extension uses the exact same V8 version, which was used to build the underlying Node.js used by vscode, on all supported platforms).
This situation might have change, I don't know, but with that in the background I don't recommend it.
If you want to add support for a new language in vscode you can also write a separate language server, as is mentioned in the linked SO answer. For other type of work, I'm afraid, you have no alternative to use.
No, as #rioV8 said, since VSCode is an electron app and runs on Javascript.
I have started using Git for my other development projects (PHP, HTML, JavaScript, etc.) and can now see how beneficial it is, however I've been unable to find anything similar for Dynamics CRM 2011/2013 as a lot of the solution development is done within the web interface.
I'm guessing this is not possible, but could someone with more experience than me please confirm this or let me know which tools I should be looking into?
Thanks
You can use the Visual Studio Developer Toolkit available in the SDK to version control your plugins and web resources initially. I'd recommend this as your first step.
If you choose to take it further you can also look at using the SolutionPackager tool to version control your solutions. This will split out your solution zip file into separate version controllable files for each component. It works best when you follow the developer workflow outlined in the linked MSDN article
Is there any good browser plugin that has Python as its primary scripting language. It is ok even if it has very minimal graphical abilities like just taking inputs through HTML forms or parameters and rendering text as output.
One option is running Python on server side. But unfortunately, I am not allowed to install any Python server side framework.
EDIT
It seems that Silverlight can use IronPython as its language. But any other more cross platform solutions are still welcome.
You can look at the PyXPCOM add-on to Firefox. It seems to do what you're looking for.
I wish to write my own Python IDE (just for the heck of it). I was wondering if I could use Eclipse as a foundation. This will save me from coding a whole lotta things (code editor, intellisense and so on).
To understand what I mean, please take a look at Visual Studio Isolated Shell. I'm essentially looking for something equivalent. Searching on Google hasn't helped. Is there anything like this available in Eclipse's case?
Yes. Eclipse is designed to have additional languages added and there is extensive support for this kind of plugin development. I'm surprised Googling didn't help - there's an entire site dedicated to a tutorial on the basics and a toolkit for developing such things
