I use Emacs but don't enjoy the latency of using a remote Emacs session or locally using tramp. Recently my solution is to edit locally, then whenever I need to run the codebase on the remote machine I wrap the run command in a script with two rsync commands. First (using rsync) it will sync the remote codebase with any local changes. Then when the remote command completes, any relevant result files I want to analyze locally after are synced back to the local machine (using rsync). Rsync is very flexible and has lots of options such as ignore filters.
