This will be a good addition, but as Coder is self-hosted, it will need some configuration to set the CODER_ACCESS_URL and a mapping from repos to templates. Coder is very flexible, and most users will have different templates for each of the repos.

We may simplify it if the repos have a .devcontainer and can open it in the configured devcontainer template.

Meanwhile, we have Open in Coder buttons that can be added to Markdown files.

This would be a great feature it there is also first class support for devcontainers or something like .gitpod.yml then the repo that is being opened gets the write environment.

As coder is always self hosted your would need to config the extension with your url schema to "Open in Coder"

Closing this as a duplicate of #8589 to keep the discussion on a single issue.
