Normalizes non-standard code-fence language tags across `docs/**` so a strict highlighter (Shiki, used by Fumadocs) won't fail the build on an unrecognized language, and unifies redundant synonym tags onto one canonical form per language. The current renderer (Speed-Highlight) detects the language from the code content, not the fence label, so this drift wasn't visible until now. ## Changes - `hcl` -> `tf` (199 fences, including indented ones nested in numbered/bulleted lists). Shiki ships `hcl` and `terraform` as two distinct grammars (not aliases); every `hcl`-tagged fence in `docs/**` is actually Terraform resource/data/provider syntax, so the more specific `terraform` grammar is correct for all of them. `tf` is Shiki's own alias for that grammar, and it's also what GitHub's own markdown renderer resolves to the same HCL/Terraform highlighting. - `pwsh`/`powershell` -> `ps1`. Both `ps` and `ps1` are registered PowerShell aliases in Shiki, but on GitHub's renderer only `.ps1` is a registered file extension (`.ps` isn't), so `ps1` renders identically to `powershell` there today while bare `ps` would silently lose highlighting. - `env` -> `dotenv` (a dedicated Shiki grammar for `KEY=VALUE` files) - `text`/`output`/`none`/`url` -> `txt`. Same built-in plain-text fallback either way, just shorter. - `Dockerfile` -> `dockerfile` (lowercase) - `bash`/`shell` -> `sh` (732 fences). Shiki and GitHub both alias all three to a single shell grammar; this was already the style guide's stated preference, just not enforced across the existing corpus until now. - `markdown` -> `md` (4 fences). Alias of the same grammar in both Shiki and GitHub. - `jsonc` -> `json` (1 fence). The block has no comments or trailing commas, so it doesn't need the comments-capable grammar. - `ts` -> `tsx` (2 fences, `docs/about/contributing/frontend.md`). Verified the actual content tokenizes identically under both grammars, and a sibling block in the same file already needs `tsx` for real JSX, so unifying to one tag is safe for this file. Documented a caveat: `tsx` mis-tokenizes the legacy angle-bracket type-assertion syntax (`<Type>value`), which is invalid in real `.tsx` files anyway, so use `value as Type` instead. - `yml` -> `yaml` (1 fence) - Updated `docs/.style/style-guide/formatting.md` to document all canonical tags `promql` (2 fences) and `caddyfile` (2 fences) are left as-is. Shiki doesn't bundle a grammar for either, so they need a custom grammar registration when the site adopts Shiki, rather than degrading to `txt`. Tracked as follow-up work under DOCS-118 and [DOCS-544](https://linear.app/codercom/issue/DOCS-544/vendor-a-local-promql-grammar-for-shiki-syntax-highlighting) (promql). Does not touch `offlinedocs/`. Linear: [DOCS-476](https://linear.app/codercom/issue/DOCS-476/normalize-docs-code-fence-languages-de-risk-shikifumadocs) <details> <summary>How the fence tags were verified</summary> Each tag was tested against a real `shiki@latest` highlighter instance (`codeToHtml`/`codeToTokens`) and cross-checked against GitHub's `@wooorm/starry-night` grammar sources (the renderer that actually displays these `.md` files today, in repo browsing and PR diffs), since that's what determines whether brevity is safe before Shiki adoption: ```text FAIL env -- Language `env` is not included in this bundle. FAIL Dockerfile -- Language `Dockerfile` is not included in this bundle. FAIL promql -- Language `promql` is not included in this bundle. FAIL caddyfile -- Language `caddyfile` is not included in this bundle. FAIL pwsh -- Language `pwsh` is not included in this bundle. FAIL output -- Language `output` is not included in this bundle. ``` `hcl` doesn't error in Shiki, since it's a real grammar, but that's exactly the trap: it was silently rendering every fence with the generic HCL grammar instead of the Terraform-specific one. Every `hcl`-tagged fence in `docs/**` was manually checked against `origin/main` and is genuinely Terraform content. For `ts`/`tsx`, tokenizing the actual doc content confirmed identical output under both grammars; a synthetic test with the legacy angle-bracket cast syntax confirmed `tsx` degrades on that specific construct, which the style guide now calls out. The first normalization pass only matched fence tags at column 0 (`^```tag$`), missing tags indented inside numbered/bulleted lists. A follow-up pass caught the remaining occurrences at any indentation level. </details> --- *This PR description and the underlying changes were prepared with Coder Agents assistance.*

Google Cloud Platform
In this guide, you will learn how to deploy the Coder control plane instance and your first template.
Requirements
This guide assumes you have roles/compute.instanceAdmin.v1 access to your
Google Cloud Platform project.
Launch a Coder instance from the Google Cloud Marketplace
We publish an Ubuntu 22.04 VM image with Coder and Docker pre-installed.
Two SKU's are available via the Google Cloud Marketplace:
- License purchase via Google Cloud Marketplace
- A solution to deploy VM's on GCP (Bring Your Own License)
Be sure to keep the default firewall options checked so you can connect over HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH.
We recommend keeping the default instance type (e2-standard-4, 4 cores and 16
GB memory) if you plan on provisioning Docker containers as workspaces on this
VM instance. Keep in mind this platforms is intended for proof-of-concept
deployments and you should adjust your infrastructure when preparing for
production use. See: Scaling Coder
Be sure to add a keypair so that you can connect over SSH to further configure Coder.
After launching the instance, wait 30 seconds and navigate to the public IPv4 address. You should be redirected to a public tunnel URL.
That's all! Use the UI to create your first user, template, and workspace. We recommend starting with a Docker template since the instance has Docker pre-installed.
Configuring Coder server
Coder is primarily configured by server-side flags and environment variables. Given you created or added key-pairs when launching the instance, you can configure your Coder deployment by logging in via SSH or using the console:
ssh ubuntu@<gcp-public-IPv4>
sudo vim /etc/coder.d/coder.env # edit config
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl restart coder # restart Coder
Give developers VM workspaces (optional)
Instead of running containers on the Coder instance, you can offer developers full VM instances with the gcp-linux template.
Before you can use this template, you must authorize Coder to create VM instances in your GCP project. Follow the instructions in the gcp-linux template README to set up authentication.
