tailscale VS deploy-code-server

I've been curious about Tailscale for a while, and now a use case for their "zero config VPN" has presented itself. Render's developer advocate, Chris, and founder, Anurag, were recently in touch with the Tailscale team to figure out the best way to use Tailscale on Render. It's possible to run Tailscale in the same container as a Render service, but we found the experience smoother when we deployed a tailscale subnet router as a standalone Render private service. Either way we need userspace networking mode.

There's also a bunch of guides for deploying code-server to different services here: https://github.com/coder/deploy-code-server

I recently heard about an open source project called code-server, which is maintained by the people behind Coder, and lets you access a remote VS Code process from the browser. Deploying code-server to Render feels like a good place to start my exploration. I'm excited to discover an additional repo that helps with deploying code-server to cloud hosting platforms. The repo includes a Dockerfile, so I suspect we can deploy it to Render without any changes.

The answer is yes and there are a lot of different solutions for it: 1. Use Gitpod.io (supported Github, Gitlab, Bitbucket,...) 2. Use Github CodeSpaces (Only Github, ofc) 3. Host your own code-server (https://github.com/cdr/deploy-code-server)
