Installing Coder on k3s

Create an Ubuntu 20.10 machine with the minimum system requirements for Coder, and as many running workspaces as you need.
Install kubectl and helm
Change the SSH port to 5522 and restart SSH: guide
Set up a k3s cluster with Calico, following this guide: https://docs.projectcalico.org/getting-started/kubernetes/k3s/quickstart
If you run into an error installing Calico OR installing Coder with helm, set kubeconfig var ~/.bashrc: k3s-io/k3s#1126 (comment)
Edit /etc/cni/net.d/10-calico.conflist and set allow_ip_forwarding to true.
[To be safe] Set allow_ip_forwarding to true in the ConfigMap as well: kubectl edit cm cni-config -n calico-system
Install Coder as normal: https://coder.com/docs/setup/installation

Shared indexes with Coder

TLDR: Shared indexes work with Coder + JetBrains Projector. To quickly prototype your project with shared indexes, you can generate them and host them as a dev URL on your workspace, for other workspaces to try.

After testing, you'll need to upload the contents of /home/coder/indexes/generate-output to a file server and use that as the index location, or include them in the Coder image's filesystem. Dev URLs are used simply as a test. You'll need to regenerate the metadata with cdn-layout-tool with the proper destination as well.

Generating a shared index in a Coder workspace:

React native development with Coder

Other apps we could try later:

Note: I tried with standalone React Rative, but Expo (a beginner-friendly framework) works too. I tried this in 2021 with Coder.
