this space, so it is hard to know how LLMs and IDE integrations compare from week to week.
I haven't fully evaluated the differences between VSCode and Code Server yet, but in the context of a replacement for
what I had with GitLab and GitHub I am satisfied with what I see in Code Server.

## Deployment
Deployment is as simple as starting a Docker container. In addition to the documented setup process, I also mounted
a directory with my SSH configuration and keys so that I can easily connect to GitHub and my private Forgejo via SSH.
I configured nginx ingress (for access from my LAN only). For most deployments, its probably easier to just use IP
addresses but I like using nginx so that its a little easier to move deployments around and just update Nginx to point at
the appropriate IP address. I've included my site config below in case anyone reading this wants to achieve something
similar. I don't know that this is optimal, but it is working.

I wrote the bulk of this post about 2 months ago and I admittedly have not found myself using Code Server for
anything other than this blog project. I have been using Copilot in VSCode more regularly in my day-to-day, and its
lack of support in Coder is probably a deal breaker for me. Even though I am unlikely to continue using Code Server,
I may check out Coder as a method for exposing a different IDE via web browser.

## Future Plans
As mentioned, I might check out Coder as a more complete reproducible workspace
