## Getting Started

### In Coder

> [!IMPORTANT]
> The updated way of using DevContainers within Coder is now the built-in [DevContainers CLI integration](https://coder.com/docs/@v2.36.1/admin/integrations/devcontainers#dev-containers-integration), it is heavily suggested to go with this approach.
>
> Feel free to join the [Coder Discord server](https://cdr.co/discord-4mHyQ3BJP8) and ask for help with finding out the best way to use DevContainers in your Coder deployment.

Browse the Coder Registry for [example templates that use `envbuilder` to deploy DevContainers](https://registry.coder.com/templates?search=tag%3Adevcontainer).

### Docker

The easiest way to get started is by running the `envbuilder` Docker container that clones a repository specified by `ENVBUILDER_GIT_URL`, builds the image from a Dockerfile or `devcontainer.json`, and runs the `$ENVBUILDER_INIT_SCRIPT` in the freshly built container.
