Hello everyone, I’m looking for a web based IDE that can create isolated development environments as you could do in Koding or with VSCode with the “Remote” extension.
My use case is quite simple, I want to play around with different projects and languages without installing anything directly on my machine (docker containers FTW) to reduce conflicts between packages and garbage. The “web based” requirement is because I have a server with plenty of capacity to take care of this task and I’d like to keep as clean as possible my PC.
I’ve tried already code server but I cannot install the “Remote” extension to have it create containers on demand.
Any suggestion or help is more than welcome! :D
You’re looking for Coder.
You can even set up your DE with the bits required to build your apps.
Thanks a lot, great suggestion! I’ll play around with it and let you know :)
This looks interesting indeed, but there is some unclarity on which features are behind the enterprise edition paywall. If you try it out please let us know what your impression is.
