With Coder downloaded, we can now install it. Navigate to the root directory of the cloned repository by running:

cd ~/coder

Then, use the yarn command to install Coder:

yarn

Wait for the installation process to complete.

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!
