Answer 2

You cut through SFTP through FileZilla and edit.
IMHO, nano and vim are handy. I prefer nano.

Answer 3

I just install LXDE and VNC server, or rather, the latter is already installed, and edit directly on the server in the required IDE, it will also work faster if the server is more powerful. And RDP in Windows Server is even more convenient, the remote desktop is almost indistinguishable from the usual one.
