Neon Now Runs in VS Code

Neon Local Connect is a new VS Code extension that lets you connect to any Neon branch over localhost, no local Postgres setup required.

You’re responsible for installing the right version, managing credentials, seeding realistic data, resetting state between test runs, and isolating changes from other projects on your machine. You can use OAuth for a fast, one-click login using your browser, or provide an API key if you want finer-grained access or plan to use ephemeral branches (which require long-lived credentials for cleanup). One of the coolest things about this extension is that it supports ephemeral branches – disposable, short-lived environments created for test runs, previews, or one-off scripts.
