Getting Started
For a full setup and walkthrough, please see ./doc/guide.md.
We have a script to install code-server for Linux and macOS.
It tries to use the system package manager if possible.
First run to print out the install process:
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run
Now to actually install:
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh
The install script will print out how to run and start using code-server.
If you believe an install script used with curl | sh is insecure, please give
this wonderful blogpost by
sandstorm.io a read.
Docs on the install script, manual installation and docker image are at ./doc/install.md.
We also highly recommend reading the FAQ on the Differences compared to VS Code.
