An Overview of Coder's Evolution

Coder has transitioned from being recognized primarily as a web-based IDE to a comprehensive cloud development environment (CDE). This evolution emphasizes its function as a platform where developers can provision various infrastructures across cloud services, enhancing productivity in coding practices. The platform allows developers to work within their preferred environments while providing a standardized infrastructure that can be easily replicated across teams. By enabling developers to manage updates and configurations via streamlined pull requests, Coder reduces the inefficiencies that arise from traditional setups.
