Last company I worked for pushed me on multiple occasions to install an FTP extension for VSCode that would upload files on save. Glad I got out, everything was a nightmare there.
I used to work like this in PHP at my first software job circa 2013. Wrote my own deployment tooling with all the warts you'd expect. Working this way is fine for simple setups but I'm glad I've moved onto saner workflows for my larger projects!
