A browser IDE on your own VPS
Code Server on your own VPS, deployed in one click.
Open a browser tab and your full VS Code workspace is waiting: the same files, extensions, terminal, and running tasks, reachable from a laptop, Chromebook, or tablet. code-server, built by Coder, keeps that editor and its compute on your own VPS, so indexing and builds run on the server, not your device. Coolify deploys it in one click instead of you wiring Docker, a reverse proxy, and TLS by hand.
Unlike a managed browser IDE, the VPS underneath stays yours. Full root and SSH access let you install language runtimes, tune Docker, run databases and preview apps next to the editor, and decide exactly who can reach the workspace. This is Coder's code-server, not Microsoft's VS Code Server backend for remote development, so you get a self-hosted web app behind your own domain, login, and HTTPS.
Why this setup fits developers
Everything code-server needs, from the first deploy.
Search across repos, run dev servers in the integrated terminal, and keep root control of the VPS that hosts your browser IDE.
Coolify one-click deployment
Go from order to a running browser IDE without a hand-built Docker setup.
Instant workspace search
Jump to any file or symbol across your repos without leaving the browser.
Integrated terminal tasks
Run installs, builds, and dev servers right beside your code.
Extensions in one editor
Bring Git, linters, and language tooling together through Open VSX.
Persistent project files
Repos, uploads, and dotfiles stay in place between every session.
Root and SSH control
Shape the host around your workflow with packages, Docker, and services.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Code Server
Answers to the most important questions before you start.
It is a browser-based VS Code environment running on your own virtual private server. Files, terminal sessions, extensions, and compute stay on infrastructure you control instead of on a managed browser IDE.
The VPS is still yours, but Coolify takes care of the most time-consuming first steps. Instead of starting from a blank machine and wiring Docker, a reverse proxy, TLS, and routes by hand, you deploy code-server from the VPS app marketplace and keep full VPS control. Learn more in the Help Center
- Order the VPS
- Open Coolify
- Deploy code-server
Yes. code-server is just one app on a real VPS you control. You can manage the OS, install packages, connect via SSH, tune Docker, choose the reverse proxy, and decide how the workspace is exposed. How to connect via SSH
Size the VPS around the workload, not the editor. Light solo editing can start small. Docker or build-heavy projects should prioritize more CPU and RAM, and multi-repo full-stack workspaces benefit from extra memory plus fast storage.
- Light solo editing: lower resource demand
- Docker and builds: add CPU and RAM headroom
- Full-stack workspaces: favor memory and fast storage
Yes. Point a DNS record of your domain to the VPS, route it through Coolify or your own reverse proxy, and serve the editor over HTTPS with a login in front. Preview apps on internal ports only get their own route when you actually want to share them. Set up DNS records
Yes. code-server gives you the browser IDE, while the VPS stays a normal server you control. That means Git, package managers, test runners, Docker Compose stacks, local APIs, and preview apps can all live beside the workspace.
Pick the location closest to the people using the browser workspace, because every keystroke, file save, and terminal line travels to the server. VPS locations are available in Europe and America, and many North American teams start with Ashburn.
code-server is Coder's browser-based IDE that you run as a self-hosted web app on your VPS. Microsoft's VS Code Server is the backend behind the official remote-development features, so the two are different products with different setups.

Why does code-server feel slow during builds?
Check CPU saturation, RAM pressure, disk speed, and whether language servers or Docker containers are competing with the same build on the VPS.
What should I upgrade first?
If the box is swapping, add RAM first. If memory is stable but compiles stay slow, the next step is usually more CPU.
