Time to value

Moderate Setup (1-3 hours)

You can use Coder to create self-hosted development environments in the cloud or on-premises. It lets you set up standardized workspaces using Terraform templates that developers can provision in seconds. Teams can run code in secure, consistent environments with their preferred IDEs and tools, while IT maintains control over infrastructure, access, and costs. Developers get faster onboarding and AI coding agents can work safely within governed environments.
