## Getting Started

### Requirements

- Minimum GLIBC version of 2.17 and a minimum version of GLIBCXX of 3.4.15.
- This is the main requirement for building Visual Studio Code. We cannot go lower than this.
- A 64-bit host with at least 1GB RAM and 2 cores.
- 1 core hosts would work but not optimally.
- Docker (for Docker versions of `code-server`).

### Run over SSH
Use [sshcode](https://github.com/codercom/sshcode) for a simple setup.
