Feature stages
Some Coder features are released in feature stages before they are generally available.
If you encounter an issue with any Coder feature, please submit a GitHub issues or join the Coder Discord.
Early access features
Early access features are neither feature-complete nor stable. We do not recommend using early access features in production deployments.
Coder releases early access features behind an “unsafe” experiment, where they’re accessible but not easy to find.
Experimental features
These features are disabled by default, and not recommended for use in production as they may cause performance or stability issues. In most cases, experimental features are complete, but require further internal testing and will stay in the experimental stage for one month.
Coder may make significant changes to experiments or revert features to a feature flag at any time.
If you plan to activate an experimental feature, we suggest that you use a staging deployment.
You can opt-out of an experiment after you've enabled it.
# Enable all experimental features
coder server --experiments=*
# Enable multiple experimental features
coder server --experiments=feature1,feature2
# Alternatively, use the `CODER_EXPERIMENTS` environment variable.
