## Highlights



- Code on any device with a consistent development environment

- Use cloud servers to speed up tests, compilations, downloads, and more

- Preserve battery life when you're on the go; all intensive tasks run on your

  server



## Requirements



See [requirements](https://coder.com/docs/code-server/latest/requirements) for minimum specs, as well as instructions

on how to set up a Google VM on which you can install code-server.



**TL;DR:** Linux machine with WebSockets enabled, 1 GB RAM, and 2 vCPUs



## Getting started



There are four ways to get started:



1. Using the [install

   script](https://github.com/coder/code-server/blob/main/install.sh), which

   automates most of the process. The script uses the system package manager if

   possible.

2. Manually [installing

   code-server](https://coder.com/docs/code-server/latest/install)

3. Deploy code-server to your team with [coder/coder](https://cdr.co/coder-github)

4. Using our one-click buttons and guides to [deploy code-server to a cloud

   provider](https://github.com/coder/deploy-code-server) ⚡



If you use the install script, you can preview what occurs during the install

process:



```bash

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run

```



To install, run:



```bash

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh

```



When done, the install script prints out instructions for running and starting

code-server.
