Code-Server

Why do I run this

This was a quick easy way to have a text editor without being SSH'd into my docker host constantly. I can donfigure my markdown documents, YML files etc all via a browser from anywhere in the world if I so choose. This is not currently publically available as I plan to do most things from home or on a VPN.

My install

  1. Make a directory for the code server to run from 
    1
    mkdir code-server
  2. Change to that directory
    cd code-server
  3. Run the docker command below. Please note the <directory> needs to be set where you want it to have access. Also be sure to remove or set a differnet password than whats in the example.
