Dockside lets dev teams code from anywhere in clones of their production environment and share and stage their work online for stakeholders.

Dockside launches each dev environment fully equipped with custom domain name, HTTPS reverse proxy, seamless SSH access, plus a built-in web-based IDE (Theia), and fine-grained access controls so its IDE and web services can be shared with/staged for exactly whom you wish – and no further.

Use either the built-in VS Code-compatible Theia web-based IDE; any IDE like VS Code or JetBrains, Eclipse, Atom or Sublime that supports remote development over SSH; or any console text editor. Terminal and SSH with root access.

Spin up a dev environment (or 'devtainer ') in seconds. Launch one for each task, from your preprepared profiles. Switch between multiple tasks, just as you switch between browser tabs. If you mess up, just start afresh.

Stage your work publicly or privately and securely, allowing instant feedback on your work from colleagues, testers, PMs, managers and clients.
