It can still be used to check for updates but will not apply them. For now also remove the update check loop in VS Code since it's currently unused (update check is hardcoded off right now) and won't work anyway since it also applies the update which now won't work. In the future we should integrate the check into the browser update service.

Getting Started
For a full setup and walkthrough, please see ./doc/guide.md.
Quick Install
We have a script to install code-server for Linux, macOS and FreeBSD.
It tries to use the system package manager if possible.
First run to print out the install process:
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run
Now to actually install:
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh
The install script will print out how to run and start using code-server.
Manual Install
Docs on the install script, manual installation and docker image are at ./doc/install.md.
