Self-hosted cloud dev environments & AI agents. Define with Terraform, save costs, keep data private.
Core Features
- Define cloud dev environments in Terraform (EC2, Kubernetes, Docker, etc.)
- Auto-shutdown idle workspaces to cut cloud costs
- Onboard developers in seconds with standardized environments
- Run AI coding agents on your own infrastructure, supporting any LLM model
- Centralized governance, cost tracking, and audit logging for AI usage
What It Can't Do
- •【Caveats】1. Production requires PostgreSQL (v13+) and an external access URL (e.g., *.try.coder.app). 2. Free tier has user and feature limits; consider paid plans for large teams. 3. Terraform knowledge needed for writing templates. 4. Self-hosting requires DevOps skills (K8s/Docker experience helps). 5. AI agent feature requires configuring your own LLM API keys and ensuring sufficient model throughput.
Use Cases
- Standardize development environments across teams to eliminate 'works on my machine'
- Leverage AI coding assistants while keeping code and data on-premises
- Manage hybrid/multi-cloud dev resources with automatic cost control
- Rapidly provision remote workspaces for distributed teams
Coder is a self-hosted platform that enables teams to define cloud development environments (workspaces) using Terraform, supporting EC2, Kubernetes, Docker, and more. Workspaces are connected through a secure Wireguard tunnel and automatically shut down when idle to save costs. It also allows you to run AI coding agents on your own infrastructure, supporting models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Bedrock, or self-hosted options - with no LLM credentials stored in workspaces and centralized governance, cost tracking, and audit logging. Onboard developers in seconds instead of days, and maintain full control over your infrastructure and data.
