Just set up @coderhq on my server. Getting some pretty severe nostalgia from my first gig where everyone used one big shared server. Not sure what I'm going to use this for but I think I'll keep it around!
@zrail at it's core coder/coder creates things, turns them on and turns them off. Anything that can be terraformed can be managed.
Like right now I (@ghuntley) am working on a M1 mac but am doing some work on #windows to add #winget and #chocolatey support. After this done will be adding support for #freebsd to coder/coder.
Joe (the maintainer of #codeserver) uses coder/coder to provision his teaching environments. See https://coder.com/blog/dedicated-development-environment-for-teaching
@zrail over at https://github.com/coder/awesome-coder you'll find a bunch of templates. Nerd snipe this account if you got any questions or head to the discord at https://coder.com/chat
@coderhq Thanks for the pointers!
@zrail nps. At it's core coder is a self-service portal that people log onto to provision _individual_ software development environments. There is ways to provision everything onto a singular fat box if you wanted but the most common usecase for #homelab is a way to create cloud labs (ie #AWS #GCP #Azure) that turn off automatically to prevent bill shock. :)
@coderhq Yep, so at the moment I'm running a VM on a local box with the docker template and I think it suits my needs fine, at least for now.
