Developer platforms
Visual Studio Code Server
Work in a browser-based code-server development environment running on your AWS instance.
Sold by Code Creator on AWS Marketplace
Built for your workflow
Developers using laptops or tablets can access a consistent remote editing environment through a web browser. The offering packages code-server, which brings a Visual Studio Code-style development experience to a remote server.
What’s included
- Browser access to the remote development environment.
- Source editing with syntax highlighting and code completion workflows.
- Customizable editor preferences, keyboard shortcuts and themes.
- Preconfigured EC2 runtime and Ubuntu integration.
What Code Creator adds
Code Creator provides the remote development environment and its browser-access configuration on an EC2-ready Ubuntu system. You can start from the packaged runtime rather than first installing and wiring a remote editor.
From launch to first use
- Launch the supported AMI configuration from the current Marketplace listing.
- Follow the listing's access instructions to connect to the browser editor.
- Open your project and configure the language tools and development workflow it needs.
Use the current Marketplace usage instructions for the full launch procedure and required instance settings.
Before you launch
Restrict access to the development server and protect project credentials. Confirm extension compatibility and licensing rather than assuming every desktop extension is available. This is a code-server package, with no claim of Microsoft operation or endorsement.
