I've been trying to switch over to VS Code from Atom as my new text editor, but I've been completely blocked as one of the core pieces of functionality I use, FTPing into servers via the code editor, I cannot seem to accomplish on VS Code.

The most highly-rated extension I could find for FTP functionality was ftp-kr. However, after installing it and trying for weeks to figure out how to use it, I cannot seem to get the editor to edit a simple remote file once I connect to a site. (https://github.com/karikera/ftp-kr/issues/156) I've tried asking about this issue in multiple places (including an email to the dev) but can't seem to get a response from anyone.

I'm just wondering if anyone has experience using this extension or FTPing into a server directly from VS Code? How did you get the extension to edit files when you use it?
