It will absolutely work for coding but it's not really meant for learning. You absolutely can learn in it, but it will not provide you with much guidance.
If you want to learn in VS Code, it will probably be easier to install it on whatever machine (or VM) you are working on. For someone learning to code, it's unlikely you'll be over taxing any computer's resources.
Or maybe try out GitHub Codespaces, which also uses VS code but hosted on GitHub's servers.
Running code server on an unRAID machine and connecting over a network seems like it is adding a layer of complexity that you don't need while learning.
Definitely not while learning, but I use it to edit code from my phone, which works pretty well.
VS code server? It's just an IDE, VS code specifically. It isn't necessarily for learning.
I'd use codecademy or something similar to learn coding. It's free and teaches you the basics, all in a browser.
