Coder Community is the free-to-use tier based on our open-source release of Coder. Coder is a cloud development environment (CDE), it provisions and manages workspaces. Coder’s mission is to onboard developers to a productive, ready-to-use, fully configured cloud development environment. We released Coder as open source because we understand that developers look for transparency, a vibrant community, and low-risk evaluation when adopting a new platform.
