{"library":"code-server","type":"library","category":null,"description":"code-server enables running Microsoft's Visual Studio Code on a remote server, accessible via a web browser. This facilitates a consistent development environment across various devices, leveraging cloud server resources for computationally intensive tasks like compilation, testing, and downloads, thereby preserving local device battery life. The current stable version is 4.116.0, which updates to VS Code 1.116.0. The project maintains a frequent release cadence, generally updating monthly to align with new VS Code versions. Key differentiators include its ability to centralize development environments, utilize server-side processing power, and offer a web-based IDE experience without direct client-side VS Code installation. It requires a Linux machine with WebSockets enabled, at least 1GB RAM, and 2 vCPUs, and is built for Node.js 22.","language":"javascript","status":"active","version":"4.116.0","tags":["javascript","vscode","development","ide","coder","vscode-remote","browser-ide","remote-development"],"last_verified":"Tue Apr 21","install":[{"cmd":"npm install code-server","imports":[]},{"cmd":"yarn add code-server","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add code-server","imports":[]}],"homepage":"https://coder.com","github":"https://github.com/coder/code-server","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/code-server","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":null}
