> 🤖 This PR was written by Coder Agents on behalf of Jake Howell. Refreshes the six stale screenshots on the [Workspaces](https://coder.com/docs/user-guides/workspace-management) page (`docs/user-guides/workspace-management.md`) with the current Coder UI, recreating equivalent dummy data (matching template and workspace names) so the images stay recognizable. Linear: DOCS-55 ## Updated images | Image | Section | |-------|---------| | `creating-workspace-ui.png` | Creating workspaces | | `workspace-update.png` | Updating workspaces | | `workspace-automatic-updates.png` | Automatic updates | | `user-guides/workspace-bulk-actions.png` | Bulk operations | | `schedule.png` | Starting and stopping | | `templates/template-variables.png` | Repairing workspaces | Prose is unchanged; this is a screenshot-only refresh. ## Notes / limitations The originals came from production-like deployments with AWS/Azure/Kubernetes templates, multiple users, and aged data. These were reproduced on a local `scripts/develop.sh` (Docker) instance, so: - Template/workspace names, states (Running/Stopped/Failed), the "Selected 3 of 5" bulk selection, `use_kubeconfig=True`/`namespace=default`, and the auto-update = `Always` setting all match. - Instance-derived values cannot match: "used by" counts show `0 developers`, build times show `Unknown`, the connection-latency pill has no value, and the workspace name field is disabled by the template. <details> <summary>How these were produced (decision log)</summary> Followed the `dogfood` skill: 1. Started a local instance with `./scripts/develop.sh` (`v2.36.0-devel`, matching the docs version). 2. Created Docker-backed templates named to match the originals: `data-warehouse`, `analytics`, `api-services`, `frontend-web`, `pod-share-jupyter`, `aws-linux-ephemeral`, `azure-aks-pod`, plus `kubernetes2` ("Develop in Kubernetes"). The JetBrains module was dropped from the Docker template to avoid a plan-time error; `kubernetes2` uses a Coder-only variant declaring the real `namespace` and `use_kubeconfig` variables so it imports with `use_kubeconfig=true`. 3. Created workspaces: `admin/my-frontend` (outdated → update available, with a schedule), `admin/dev` (auto-update = Always), and `kirby/{data-science, aws-large, azure-space, ephem-demo (Failed), kirbs (Stopped)}`. 4. Captured each page with a headless Playwright script, hiding dev-only chrome (the sticky deployment banner, the navbar `::before` hazard stripe, and the `-devel` version chip) and cropping settings pages to the form. Images are 2x for crispness. 5. Each screenshot was visually verified against the original for content parity. </details>
Coder is a self-hosted platform for cloud development environments and AI coding agents. Workspaces are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used. Coder Agents runs a native AI coding agent whose loop executes in the control plane on your infrastructure, with no API keys in workspaces.
- Define cloud development environments in Terraform
- EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
- Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
- Onboard developers in seconds instead of days
- Delegate coding work to AI agents on your infrastructure
- Bring any model (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Bedrock, self-hosted)
- No LLM credentials in workspaces, user identity on every action
- Centralized model governance, cost tracking, and audit logging
Quickstart
Check out our install guides for other methods and a complete tutorial.
Try Coder with the install script on Linux and macOS, or grab the latest binary or installer from GitHub Releases on Windows:
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
Start the server and open http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user, create a Docker template, and provision your first workspace:
coder server
For a production deployment, add a PostgreSQL database (version 13 or later) and an external access URL, and see our validated architectures for sizing and infrastructure guidance:
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>
Without these flags, Coder uses a built-in database and sets up a *.try.coder.app access URL for evaluation. Use coder --help for the full list of flags and environment variables.
