### About {% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %}
|
|
|
|
{% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} is a cloud development environment available in your browser. A codespace includes everything you need to develop for a specific repository, including a text editor with syntax highlighting and autocomplete, a terminal, debugging tools, and Git commands, all within {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}. You can also install {% data variables.product.prodname_vscode %} extensions in your codespace to add more functionality.
|
|
|
|
{% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} makes it easier for developers to onboard to a new company or start contributing to an open-source project. Project maintainers can configure a repository so that, when you create a codespace for the repository, the project's dependencies are included automatically. You can start coding faster by reducing time spent configuring your environment.
|
|
|
|
{% data variables.product.prodname_codespaces %} allows you to develop in the cloud instead of locally. Developers can contribute from anywhere, on any machine, including tablets or Chromebooks, and there is no need to maintain local copies of intellectual property.
