vscode.dev doesn't offer any control or menu to open a project except in GitHub or some equivalent Azure system. It seems to be very closely tied to GitHub. However, if there is a Leo outlne in a GitHub project, you can open it in LeoJS without explicitly going through vscode.dev. You click on the file, which brings up a browser view in GitHub. There is a pencil icon for more edit options. One of these is for github.dev. This is actually a version of vscode.dev. When it opens, you can install the leoJS extension and then open any Leo outline in the repo in leoJS.
