    I want to open the exists project from the remote PC "A" in my another pc "b", but I don't know how to deal with it.

      So it's exactly the same as for embedded systems. You cross-compile, copy and execute.
      Otherwise you also have VS Code (or alternatives) that have a remote dev feature through tunneling and some additional software installed on the other machine.

        @Heneral What OS is running on both PCs?
        Usually one would use a version control system like Git.

            @Heneral Simply copy the project from one PC to another, or even better, use a version control system like Git. Do NOT copy files like *.pro.user
            You could also use NFS, for example, to mount PC A partition on PC B, but that's not what you should do.

              @jsulm We are only allowed to connect to our company's git repo in PC A, and the pc b are not allowed to connect to the git repo.
              So I want to find resolution to deal with this problem, just like plugin remote-ssh in vscode.

              Now I am using NFS.

                Hi,

                Why not use a setup like with embedded systems ? You build on PC A and then copy the executable and relevant libraries on PC B and do remote debugging.

                  @SGaist The arch of PC is not same. One is arm and another is x86. The version of OS is not same, either.
