Coder is an open-source cloud IDE (Integrated Development Environment) that allows developers to code from anywhere without the need for powerful hardware. In this tutorial, we will explore how to install Coder on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:
Coder runs on Docker, so we need to first install Docker. Execute the following command to install Docker:
sudo pacman -S docker
In this step, we will install Git, which is necessary for cloning the Coder repository. To do so, enter the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications, which is what Coder uses. To install Docker Compose, enter the following command:
sudo pacman -S docker-compose
Now, we will clone the Coder repository to our system. Use the following command:
git clone https://github.com/cdr/coder
This will clone the Coder repository.
Before we proceed with the installation, we need to create a .env file. Navigate to the Coder directory and enter the following command to create it:
cd coder
cp .env.example .env
Finally, we’ll start installing Coder. To install Coder, execute the following command:
./coder.sh install
This process might take a while to complete, so be patient.
Now that Coder has been installed, let's start it up. To do so, run the following command:
./coder.sh start
Coder should now be accessible by visiting http://localhost:8443 in your web browser.
In this tutorial, we walked through how to install Coder on EndeavourOS Latest. Now that Coder is installed, you can begin coding from anywhere with ease. Happy coding!
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
