`code-server` is [VS Code](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode) running on a remote server, accessible through the browser.
Try it out:
```bash
docker run -it -p 127.0.0.1:8443:8443 -v "${PWD}:/home/coder/project" codercom/code-server --allow-http --no-auth
```
- Code on your Chromebook, tablet, and laptop with a consistent dev environment.
- If you have a Windows or Mac workstation, more easily develop for Linux.
- Take advantage of large cloud servers to speed up tests, compilations, downloads, and more.
- Preserve battery life when you're on the go.
- All intensive computation runs on your server.
- You're no longer running excess instances of Chrome.

## Getting Started
### Docker
See docker oneliner mentioned above. Dockerfile is at [/Dockerfile](/Dockerfile).
### Binaries
1. [Download a binary](https://github.com/codercom/code-server/releases) (Linux and OS X supported. Windows coming soon)
2. Start the binary with the project directory as the first argument
```
code-server <initial directory to open>
```
> You will be prompted to enter the password shown in the CLI
`code-server` should now be running at https://localhost:8443.
> code-server uses a self-signed SSL certificate that may prompt your browser to ask you some additional questions before you proceed. Please [read here](doc/self-hosted/index.md) for more information.
For detailed instructions and troubleshooting, see the [self-hosted quick start guide](doc/self-hosted/index.md).

## Development
### Known Issues
- Creating custom VS Code extensions and debugging them doesn't work.
### Future
- **Stay up to date!** Get notified about new releases of code-server.

- Windows support.
- Electron and Chrome OS applications to bridge the gap between local<->remote.
- Run VS Code unit tests against our builds to ensure features work as expected.
### Extensions
At the moment we can't use the official VSCode Marketplace. We've created a custom extension marketplace focused around open-sourced extensions. However, if you have access to the `.vsix` file, you can manually install the extension.
## Telemetry
Use the `--disable-telemetry` flag or set `DISABLE_TELEMETRY=true` to disable tracking ENTIRELY.
We use data collected to improve code-server.
