Hey, what up... in this post, we're going to open our vscode editor in the browser, and we'll do it by code-server

What's code-server 🤨 ?

code-server is a service from coder, their vision is Run VS Code on any machine anywhere and access it in the browser.

Setup code-server

Run VS Code on any machine anywhere and access it in the browser.

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

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

There are four ways to get started:

Using the install script, which automates most of the process. The script uses the system package manager if possible.
Manually installing code-server
Deploy code-server to your team with coder/coder
Using our one-click buttons and guides to deploy code-server to a cloud provider ⚡

If you use the install script, you can preview what occurs…

open the terminal and type

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

after install it, let's active it

$ code-server

in your browser, open localhost:8080

it's well asking the password, your password in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml

$ nano ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml

bind-addr: 127.0.0.1:8080
auth: password
password: YOUR_PASSWORD
cert: false

and you'll see your password, copy it, and paste it in the field...

you should have like this
