About Gitpod Classic
Gitpod Classic
Note: If you’re looking for the Gitpod experience, please install the Gitpod extension. For Gitpod Classic workspaces, this is the extension you need.
Gitpod Classic is an open-source Kubernetes application for automated and ready-to-code development environments that blends in your existing workflow. It enables you to describe your dev environment as code and start instant and fresh development environments for each new task directly from your browser.
Tightly integrated with GitLab, GitHub, and Bitbucket, Gitpod automatically and continuously prebuilds dev environments for all your branches. As a result, team members can instantly start coding with fresh, ephemeral and fully-compiled dev environments - no matter if you are building a new feature, want to fix a bug or do a code review.
Getting Started
You can open a Gitpod Classic workspace with VS Code Desktop in two different ways: • From your user preferences, you can select VS Code Desktop as your preferred IDE and you will always start your workspaces automatically with it. • Ad hoc, from within VS Code Browser, by opening the Command Pallete (F1) and searching for Open in VS Code if you already have a running workspace already.
Settings Sync
Sync your local VS Code settings across all your Gitpod workspaces. Checkout the documentation for how to enable it.
Documentation
All documentation can be found on https://www.gitpod.io/docs. For example, see Introduction and Getting Started sections. 📚
