Yes! We recommend students first check out our free and open source project code-server in case it meets your needs for remote development. If you need a team solution or support for multiple editors beyond VS Code, we also offer free single-user student licenses for Coder. Please email support@coder.com to request one!
Coder is priced per user on a yearly basis. Once Coder is running you can create as many workspaces as needed for your team. The only limits are the capabilities of your infrastructure.
Coder's self-hosted solution is deployed on your infrastructure: you host the dashboard and your workspaces on your Kubernetes cluster.
We also have a hosted solution now available in limited beta. Our hosted solution still requires you have a Kubernetes cluster for your workspaces, but we host the Coder dashboard for you, reducing the time needed for installation and maintenance. Once you log in to your Coder-hosted dashboard, you'll attach your cluster as a workspace provider. If you're interested in joining the beta, please email support@coder.com with details on your use case and team size.
This will vary depending upon the cloud provider you use, whether you run Coder on-premises, the number of dev environments you have running at any given moment, the scale of your Kubernetes cluster, and many other factors. For more information on the requirements to run Coder, see our documentation.
It will vary depending upon the procurement rules of the individual agency. Please contact our Public Sector team for more information and a list of our authorized resellers: gov@coder.com
