`code-server` is [VS Code](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode) running on a remote server, accessible through the browser.
- 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 is ran on your server.
- You're no longer running excess instances of Chrome.
