v4.0.0 (pre-release)

VS Code v1.63.0

Upgrading is as easy as installing the new version over the old one. code-server
maintains all user data in ~/.local/share/code-server so that it is preserved in between
installations.

code-server has been rebased on upstream's newly open-sourced server
implementation (#4414).

Changed

  • Web socket compression has been made the default (when supported). This means
    the --enable flag will no longer take permessage-deflate as an option.
  • Extra extension directories have been removed. The --extra-extensions-dir
    and --extra-builtin-extensions-dir will no longer be accepted.
  • The --install-source and --locale flags have been removed.
  • The static endpoint can no longer reach outside code-server. However the
    vscode-remote-resource endpoint still can.
  • OpenVSX has been made the default marketplace. However this means web
    extensions like Vim may be broken.

Deprecated

  • --link is now deprecated (#4562).

Breaking Changes

  • You can no longer change the display language. This has been removed upstream but we hope to see if we can patch it again. Tracking in #4598

Cheers! 🍻
