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.*

# Installing Coder
|
|
|
|
A single CLI (`coder`) is used for both the Coder server and the client.
|
|
|
|
We support two release channels: mainline and stable - read the
|
|
[Releases](./releases/index.md) page to learn more about which best suits your team.
|
|
|
|
## Download the latest release from GitHub
|
|
|
|
<div class="tabs">
|
|
|
|
## Linux/macOS
|
|
|
|
Our install script is the fastest way to install Coder on Linux/macOS:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Refer to [GitHub releases](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases) for
|
|
alternate installation methods (e.g. standalone binaries, system packages).
|
|
|
|
## Windows
|
|
|
|
If you plan to use the built-in PostgreSQL database, ensure that the
|
|
[Visual C++ Runtime](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist#latest-microsoft-visual-c-redistributable-version)
|
|
is installed.
|
|
|
|
Use [GitHub releases](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases) to download the
|
|
Windows installer (`.msi`) or standalone binary (`.exe`).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can use the
|
|
[`winget`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/#use-winget)
|
|
package manager to install Coder:
|
|
|
|
```ps1
|
|
winget install Coder.Coder
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
To start the Coder server:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
coder server
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To log in to an existing Coder deployment:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
coder login https://coder.example.com
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Download the CLI from your deployment
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> Available in Coder 2.19 and newer on macOS and Linux clients only.
|
|
|
|
Every Coder server hosts CLI binaries for all supported platforms. You can run a
|
|
script to download the appropriate CLI for your machine from your Coder
|
|
deployment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This script works within air-gapped deployments and ensures that the version of
|
|
the CLI you have installed on your machine matches the version of the server.
|
|
|
|
This script can be useful when authoring a template for installing the CLI.
