Online in three steps

Nothing to install: you order, code-server is deployed on your server and published over HTTPS.

  1. 01

    Pick your VPS

    Select a plan with at least 2 vCPUs, 2 GB of RAM and 30 GB of disk: code-server is already ticked in the order.

  2. 02

    code-server deploys itself

    The One Click Apps platform installs on your VPS, then deploys code-server with a generated password, without typing a single command.

  3. 03

    Code

    Open the HTTPS address, enter the password shown in the console and clone your first repository.

All of code-server, on your server

code-server is an open source project by Coder, not a Microsoft product: it takes the open source core of VS Code and runs it in the browser. One Click Apps deploys it and handles HTTPS, updates and backups.

  • The VS Code editor

    The VS Code interface, shortcuts, command palette and settings, served by your VPS and opened in a browser tab.

  • Built-in terminal

    A terminal inside the application's container, on Ubuntu, with git preinstalled and sudo access protected by its own password.

  • Open VSX extensions

    The Extensions panel installs from the Open VSX gallery. A missing extension can also be installed from a VSIX file.

  • On all your devices

    A computer, a tablet or a Chromebook is enough: the environment stays the same everywhere, and installs as a web app.

  • Server horsepower

    Tests, builds and downloads run on the VPS and its network, not on your machine or its battery.

  • Git and your repositories

    Drop your SSH key into /config/.ssh, set your name and email, then clone, commit and push from the terminal.

  • Persistent workspace

    The /config folder holds your workspace, settings and extensions: it survives updates and is backed up every day.

  • Password-protected

    Access to the editor is protected by a password generated at deployment, shown in the application's Overview tab.

  • Preview your apps

    code-server forwards a server port on the /proxy/<port>/ path, behind its own authentication, so you can open the app you are building.

Managed from the console with One Click Apps

  • Automatic HTTPS

    An HTTPS address from the moment it is deployed, or your own domain with its Let's Encrypt certificate.

  • Logs and variables

    Read the code-server logs and edit its environment variables, time zone included, without opening a terminal.

  • Updates

    The console detects new versions of the image, and you run the update when you decide to.

  • Daily backups

    The /config volume backed up every day and kept for 7 days, restorable in one click.

code-server is developed by Coder and published as open source under the MIT licence; the deployed image is the LinuxServer.io one. It is not a Microsoft product: Visual Studio Code is a Microsoft trademark, and Microsoft's terms reserve its extension marketplace for its own products. code-server therefore uses Open VSX, and proprietary extensions such as Live Share or Remote (SSH, Containers, WSL) are not available there.

What you can do with code-server

An always-on development environment, waiting for you in any browser.

  • Code from anywhere

    Pick up where you left off, from a borrowed computer, a tablet or a Chromebook.

  • JavaScript web apps

    Install Node.js in your home folder, start your dev server and open it through /proxy/<port>/.

    • Node.js
    • TypeScript
    • React

  • Python projects

    Scripts, APIs and Django apps, with the Python extensions available on Open VSX and your virtual environments.

    • Python
    • Django

  • PHP and Laravel

    Install PHP and Composer with sudo, edit your projects and test them without installing anything on your computer.

    • PHP
    • Laravel

  • Build Go and Rust

    Heavy builds use the VPS vCPUs and NVMe storage rather than your laptop.

    • Go
    • Rust

  • Work with Git

    Clone your repositories, create branches and push your commits to GitHub, GitLab or your own forge.

code-server FAQ

What to know before you order, and right after.

What is code-server?

code-server is an open source project by Coder that runs VS Code on a server and lets you use it in the browser. It is not a Microsoft product: it takes the open source core of VS Code, with its own changes, and is neither published nor supported by Microsoft.

Is code-server free?

Yes. code-server is published by Coder under the MIT licence, with no paid edition and no licence key. The container image we deploy is the LinuxServer.io one. The prices shown on this page are those of the VPS.

Can I install extensions from the VS Code Marketplace?

Not from Microsoft's marketplace: its terms of use reserve its extensions for Microsoft products. code-server installs extensions from Open VSX, an open gallery with a growing catalogue. An extension missing from Open VSX can be installed from its VSIX file, if its licence allows it. The proprietary Live Share and Remote (SSH, Containers, WSL) extensions are not available.

How do I access code-server after ordering?

Once the VPS is created, the One Click Apps platform installs and then deploys code-server. Its HTTPS address and password are shown in the console, in the application's Overview tab. The terminal's sudo password is there too: keep them in a password manager.

Are my files and tools kept?

The /config folder, which is your home folder, holds your workspace, settings and extensions: it is kept during updates. The terminal opens inside the application's container: packages installed with sudo apt outside /config must be reinstalled after an update, which recreates the container. Install your languages in your home folder instead, for example with nvm, pyenv or rustup.

Can I use Docker from the terminal?

Not by default: the code-server terminal runs in a container with no access to Docker. You do keep root SSH access to the VPS to work on it directly.

What minimum configuration do I need?

Coder recommends at least 1 GB of RAM and 2 cores for code-server. One Click Apps needs at least 2 vCPUs, 2 GB of RAM and 30 GB of disk, with 1 GB of memory reserved for the system and the platform. Every plan on this page meets that minimum; plan more memory and vCPUs to build large projects.

Is my code backed up?

The /config volume is backed up every day at 03:00 and kept for 7 days, on the VPS disk: these backups protect you from a mistake in the application, not from losing the server. For that, add the VPS backup option (from €1.99 excl. VAT/month), take a snapshot, and push your code to a remote Git repository.

Can several people use it?

code-server is designed for one person: a single password gives access to the editor and the terminal. For a team, Coder recommends one machine per user; you can order one VPS per developer.

Who looks after code-server once it is installed?

code-server is maintained by Coder, and its image by LinuxServer.io. Our support covers the VPS: the server, its network, its storage and its availability. The application, its configuration, your projects and its updates remain your responsibility: the console gives you the tools to manage them, and you keep root access to the server.
