Managing templates in Coder

A Meetup is being hosted at the Austin Office on September 24th, 2024. Interested attendees or speakers are encouraged to reach out. Coder templates are crucial in creating workspaces by abstracting cloud environment complexities, allowing developers to focus on their projects. Templates can be organized based on teams, projects, or images. A template is a collection of settings used to create a workspace, while an image is a collection of software for the same purpose. Terraform variables manage choices in templates. To create Coder templates, users need to create a GitHub repository and follow specific steps using Terraform files. The next post will discuss how to keep templates up-to-date, and subscribers can stay updated by joining the Discord server or signing up for the newsletter.
