Ease of provisioning the ephemeral environment and reducing the provisioning of environment.

Things that I love while using Coder to shift our entire development environment into the cloud rather than having everyone work on their local machines. It allows me to create a standardized workspace template that every developer can launch in seconds, which ensures we have no issues with unsupported devices. The biggest win with Coder is that sensitive source code never leaves the employee's physical laptop, staying secure within our cloud parameters and giving our IT team peace of mind. I find the integration with Terraform excellent because it lets me define infrastructure as code, making it incredibly easy to spin up high-powered environments for resource-heavy tasks. This has saved me a ton of time during onboarding since new hires can have a fully configured, ready-to-go environment on their first day just by clicking a button in their browser. The process of creating and sharing workspace templates is very straightforward and logical once the initial cluster is configured.

I love the AI governance policy enforcement in Coder, as it helps with keeping updates and trade compliant while using AI agents to crank out code efficiently. The reproducible CDA onboarding makes the process a breeze, which I find to be a game changer. It allows new users to go from zero to their first commit in hours rather than days or weeks. I also love the deep integration with AI tools, like GitHub Copilot or cloud services, which makes the encoder workspace smoother. Implementing code in Coder works pretty straightforward, and our team of 50 was able to move from POC to full rollout in just about two weeks.
