Install

A single CLI (coder) is used for both the Coder server and the client.

We support two release channels: mainline and stable - read the Releases page to learn more about which best suits your team.

There are several ways to install Coder. Follow the steps on this page for a minimal installation of Coder, or for a step-by-step guide on how to install and configure your first Coder deployment, follow the quickstart guide.

For production deployments with 50+ users, we recommend installing on Kubernetes. Otherwise, you can install Coder on your local machine or on a VM:

To start the Coder server:

coder server

Coder install

To log in to an existing Coder deployment:

coder login https://coder.example.com
