Quick Install

We have a script to install code-server for Linux and macOS.

It tries to use the system package manager if possible.

First run to print out the install process:

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run

Now to actually install:

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh

The install script will print out how to run and start using code-server.
