Learn how to use Coder Workspaces with IDEs and plugins to run coding agents like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, RooCode, and more.
## How it works
Coder Workspaces are full development environments that run on your cloud infrastructure, such as Kubernetes or AWS EC2. Developers can connect with their favorite IDEs with pre-configured extensions and configuration for agentic coding.

## Coder versus Local Development
Running coding agents in Coder workspaces provides several advantages over running them locally:
- **Fast, out-of-the-box setup**: LLMs, proxies, and MCP tools can be pre-configured for developers to use immediately, eliminating setup time and configuration hassles.
- **Consistent environments**: All developers use the same standardized environments, ensuring consistent access to tools and resources.
- **Resource optimization**: Leverage powerful cloud resources without taxing local machines.
- **Security and isolation**: Keep sensitive code, API keys, and secrets in controlled environments.
