VSCode has always been our favourite code editor, but I recently got the task of getting a web version of it in a React application. Well, after googling a few things, I found this way.

Setting up using docker

                
                  docker run -d \
                    --name=code-server \
                    -e PUID=1000 \
                    -e PGID=1000 \
                    -e TZ=Etc/UTC \
                    -p 8443:8443 \
                    -v /path/to/appdata/config:/config \
                    --restart unless-stopped \
                    lscr.io/linuxserver/code-server:latest

Docker run command for code-server

Setting up using npm

                
                  pnpm add -g code-server
                
              
                
                  code-server
