# How do I use code-server?

1. In the panel, open **My servers** and click your server.
2. On the **Overview** tab, wait for the **App** row to say "code-server is ready". The page refreshes itself.
3. Open the link in the **Panel address** row and enter the password from the **Password** row.

## Working

- Your projects live in the `/home/app/proje` folder. Open a terminal from **Terminal, New Terminal** and bring in your project with `git clone`.
- The terminal opens as the unprivileged `app` user. To install packages, SSH to the server as `root`.
- Install extensions from **Extensions** in the left menu.

## Changing the password

Change the `password` line in `/home/app/.config/code-server/config.yaml` and run `systemctl restart code-server` as root.

## Good to know

Anyone who knows your password can run commands on the server, so do not share it. Only **80**, **443** and **22** for SSH are open to the outside.

**No server yet?** [Order a server with code-server installed](https://www.seturack.com/en/code-server-vps): you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
