The text discusses using a Cloud Development Environment (CDE) like Coder for deploying developer tooling at scale quickly, consistently, and securely. It specifically covers using GitHub's Copilot in a Coder workspace. The blog post explains how to install Visual Studio Code for the Web, along with extensions, using Coder's module registry. It also touches upon considerations for larger deployments, especially in high-security or air-gapped DCs. Leveraging a CDE to deploy GitHub's Copilot is seen as a significant step forward in scalable, secure developer tooling.
