Your dev environment, in every browser
code-server is VS Code running server-side: open a browser on any machine — a tablet, a locked-down work laptop, a friend's PC — and your editor, extensions, terminal and files are exactly where you left them.

Why host code-server here
Running in about a minute
Pick a plan, hit launch — code-server comes up on its own subdomain with HTTPS already working. Add a custom domain whenever you like.
A real terminal, in the browser
Root shell into the container, live logs and CPU/RAM graphs — no SSH keys or local tooling needed.
Its own isolated box
One container per project on its own network, with hard CPU and memory ceilings — a noisy neighbour can't starve your app.
Pay per resource, not per tier
A small base fee plus the memory, CPU and storage you pick. Resize any time; the price follows the sliders.
The real VS Code
Extensions, themes, keybindings, integrated terminal — it's the editor you know, served over HTTPS.
One environment, every device
Stop synchronising dotfiles between machines. The environment lives on the server; devices are just screens.
code-server hosting FAQ
Is code-server the same as VS Code?
It's VS Code's open-source build running on a server with a browser front end. Most extensions from Open VSX work; a few Microsoft-exclusive ones (like the official C# debugger) don't.
Is it protected?
Access is password-protected (set at creation as an encrypted secret) and served only over HTTPS on your domain.
What plan size for development?
2 GB RAM is a comfortable baseline for editing and running small projects. Compiling large codebases wants more — resize to match your workload.
