Coder
Coder creates remote development machines so your team can develop from anywhere.
Manage less
- Ensure your entire team is using the same tools and resources
- Rollout critical updates to your developers with one command
- Automatically shut down expensive cloud resources
- Keep your source code and data behind your firewall
Code more
- Build and test faster
- Leveraging cloud CPUs, RAM, network speeds, etc.
- Access your environment from any place on any client (even an iPad)
- Onboard instantly then stay up to date continuously
Getting Started
Note: Coder is in a beta state. Report issues here.
The easiest way to install Coder is to use our install script for Linux and macOS.
To install, run:
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
You can preview what occurs during the install process:
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run
You can modify the installation process by including flags. Run the help command for reference:
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --help
See install for additional methods.
Once installed, you can start a production deployment1 with a single command:
# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server --tunnel
# Requires a PostgreSQL instance and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>
1 The embedded database is great for trying out Coder with small deployments, but do consider using an external database for increased assurance and control.
Use coder --help to get a complete list of flags and environment variables. Use our quickstart guide for a full walkthrough.
