# code-server
|
|
|
|
Run [VS Code](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode) on any machine anywhere and access it through the browser.
|
|
|
|
- **Code anywhere:** Code on your Chromebook, tablet, and laptop with a
|
|
consistent dev environment. Develop on a Linux machine and pick up from any
|
|
device with a web browser.
|
|
- **Server-powered:** Take advantage of large cloud servers to speed up tests, compilations, downloads, and more.
|
|
Preserve battery life when you're on the go since all intensive tasks runs on your server.
|
|
Make use of a spare computer you have lying around and turn it into a full development environment.

## Getting started
|
|
|
|
For a proper setup and walkthrough, please see [./doc/guide.md](./doc/guide.md).
|
|
|
|
### Debian, Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sSOL https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/3.3.0/code-server_3.3.0_amd64.deb
|
|
sudo dpkg -i code-server_3.3.0_amd64.deb
|
|
sudo systemctl enable --now code-server
|
|
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Fedora, Red Hat, SUSE
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sSOL https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/3.3.0/code-server-3.3.0-amd64.rpm
|
|
sudo dnf install code-server-3.3.0-amd64.rpm
|
|
sudo systemctl enable --now code-server
|
|
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### npm
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install -g code-server
|
|
code-server
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### macOS
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew install code-server
|
|
brew service start code-server
|
|
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### SSH
|
|
|
|
You can use [sshcode](https://github.com/codercom/sshcode) to start and use code-server on any Linux machine over SSH.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sshcode user@dev.coder.com
|
|
# Downloads and installs code-server on dev.coder.com and opens it in a new browser window.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Digital Ocean
|
|
|
|
[![Create a Droplet](./doc/assets/droplet.svg)](https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/code-server)
|
|
|
|
### Docker
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -it -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 -v "$PWD:/home/coder/project" -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" codercom/code-server:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will start a code-server container and expose it at http://127.0.0.1:8080. It will also mount
|
|
your current directory into the container as `/home/coder/project` and forward your UID/GID so that
|
|
all file system operations occur as your user outside the container.
|
|
|
|
### Self contained releases
|
|
|
|
We publish self contained archives for every release on [github](https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases).
|
|
They bundle the node binary and node_modules.
|
|
|
|
1. Download the latest release archive for your system from [github](https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases)
|
|
2. Unpack the release
|
|
3. You can run code-server by executing `bin/code-server`
|
|
|
|
Add the code-server `bin` directory to your `$PATH` to easily execute it without the full path every time.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example script for installing and using a self-contained code-server release on Linux:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sSL https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/3.3.0/code-server-3.3.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz | sudo tar -C /opt -xz
|
|
PATH="$PATH:/opt/code-server-3.3.0-linux-amd64/bin"
|
|
code-server
|
|
```
