Looking for some help with DO Droplets. Completely new to all of this so forgive me.

I’m curious how to actually make changes to a server/application once it’s live and living on a droplet.

I have ssh access to the server and have setup VsCode to be able to access the files but if I make changes locally they don’t happen on the server.

Is there anyway to set up integration thru vscode?

Should I just be editing the files directly from command line? Kind of lost tbh
