VS Code

Run VS Code on any machine anywhere and access it in the browser.

This app packages code-server (https://github.com/cdr/code-server), a Visual Studio Code version that runs directly in the browser.

The app comes with very little adaptations to code-server:

• Move all vscode folders to /app/data/vscode
• Listen on 0.0.0.0:8080
• Generate a randomized password on first start (similar to code-server)
• Print passwort to logs on each start
• Use original VS code icon as favicon

Changing the password

The password is configured in /app/data/vscode/config/config.yaml. You can change it by modifying the password key.

Also you can set the hashed-password key (create it) to the SHA-256 checksum of a password (This setting takes precedence over password).

After changing the password (either way), the app has to be restarted.
