 Highlights

- Code on any device with a consistent development environment
- Use cloud servers to speed up tests, compilations, downloads, and more
- Preserve battery life when you're on the go; all intensive tasks run on your
  server

 Requirements

See requirements for minimum specs, as well as instructions
on how to set up a Google VM on which you can install code-server.

TL;DR: Linux machine with WebSockets enabled, 1 GB RAM, and 2 vCPUs

 Getting started

There are five ways to get started:

1. Using the install
   script, which
   automates most of the process. The script uses the system package manager if
   possible.
2. Manually installing
   code-server
3. Deploy code-server to your team with coder/coder
4. Using our one-click buttons and guides to deploy code-server to a cloud
   provider ⚡
5. Using the code-server feature for
   devcontainers,
   if you already use devcontainers in your project.

If you use the install script, you can preview what occurs during the install
process:

bash
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run


To install, run:

bash
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh


When done, the install script prints out instructions for running and starting
code-server.

 Note
 To manage code-server for a team on your infrastructure, see: coder/coder

We also have an in-depth setup and
configuration guide.
