Modern Development Environments
From static workstations to dynamic AI-aware systems.
This talk is brought to you by Coder.
How developers code today
This ranges from local development with difficult governance and higher risks of escapes, to virtual desktops and managed VMs. None of these are ideal, they bring developer inefficiency and absence of oversight. Why is everyone hating on local development so much?
How developers code with CDEs
This means Cloud Development Environments. The development environment is closer to the CICD systems, hopefully improving efficiency on the developer side. This move to cloud environments is ready for the AI wave. The provider needs to extend the infrastructure they provide for humans to infrastructure for agents. Why is everyone comparing AI agents to junior engineers? Stop it!
Coding Agents in CDEs
When a developer and an AI agent operate on the same system, the developer has more permissions on source systems and the development sandbox. The AI agent is more restricted on the actions it can do and the resources it can reach. WHY IS THIS TALK ABOUT AI AGENTS? This talk was brough to you by AI Agents.
Use cases for Coder
I would like if you would actually show something instead of trying to sell me AI agents, but whatever. Coder has a Terraform Provider which seems pretty nice to manage Coder Environments, with or without agents.
