Sorry if I'm missing something, but why do you care about supporting other browsers? Isn't VSCode built on Electron which is a self contained server/browser environment?

Monaco is a standalone component which also works in the browser: https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/

The article says "It was shipped in the form of the Monaco Editor in various Microsoft projects, including Internet Explorer's F12 tools"; presumably some of those projects also embed it into webpages.

Because the base Monaco editor is used in other products besides Code. The example I've seen thrown around is configuration editing in Azure consoles.
