Theia is an extensible IDE framework with cloud-first mindset not a patch to electron and VS Code source code to run it in a browser as code server. Theia does provide similar UX and compatible with VS Code extensions but relies on stable components and protocols like Monaco, LSP, DAP and vscode extension api. Besides it is vendor neutral and allow to build white labeled products like Gitpod, ARM Mbed Studio or Arduino Pro IDE.
