I use Coder to run AI agents at scale, and I find it incredibly useful that Coder enables me to run multiple agents at once on an easy GUI screen. I like how easy it is to replace AI LLMs in Coder, which saves a lot of time for me. The initial setup was very easy, taking less than a day to be fully in production.

The biggest upsides of using Coder are improved developer productivity, stronger security, and better control over infrastructure. Because development environments can run inside a company’s own cloud or Kubernetes setup, organizations can keep their source code and data within their existing security boundaries. It also fits well with modern DevOps practices such as Infrastructure as Code, GitOps, and automated provisioning through tools like Terraform and Kubernetes.

I am happt to use Coder and run my entire development setup inside a browser, which is great because I don't have to worry about my laptop sounding like a jet engine when running heavy tasks. It's awesome because I can spin up a workspace with exactly the right amount of RAM and CPU for any project I'm tackling, and I can easily switch between my office desktop, tablet, or even a coffee shop without losing my place. I like how I can delegate the boring stuff like writing unit tests or boilerplate to a background process while focusing on the architecture. I also appreciate that my terminal sessions and open files stay exactly where I left them, even if my machine restarts or my internet disconnects. It automatically saves my progress and edits, so I can just pick up where I left off. The new AI gateway and agent firewall features are great because they allow us to securely manage our AI coding assistant without worrying about internal code leaking, which was a huge hurdle before. The installation process has been simplified recently, so I didn't have to spend hours fighting with configuration files to get my environment running.
