Coder

Coder is an open-source platform that enables organizations to provision cloud-based development environments on their own infrastructure. Key benefits include:

• Faster builds and testing: Cloud computers can build and test large codebases much faster than local machines, saving developers hours per week. Workspaces can utilize existing VM, Kubernetes, and other computing resources.

• Improved security: Development environments are decoupled from local devices, allowing secure access for contractors and third-parties without giving full remote access. All workspace traffic is encrypted end-to-end.

• Reduced costs: Automatically shuts down unused resources and starts them up before developers begin work. Can replace expensive always-on VMs or VDI solutions.

• Flexible infrastructure: Supports Linux, Windows, macOS, x86, and ARM. Can provision any infrastructure per workspace using Terraform, including VMs, containers, Kubernetes pods, and more.

• Enterprise-ready: SOC2 Type II certified, with features like single sign-on, automatic Git auth, and support for restricted networks. Used by large enterprises globally.
