kube-coder mobile is the companion app for kube-coder, an open-source, self-hosted cloud development platform (github.com/imran31415/kube-coder). If you run a kube-coder workspace, this app lets you drive it from anywhere. CONNECT IN SECONDS Point the app at your workspace host and paste the API token from your dashboard (Settings β†’ Mobile app). No account, no sign-up β€” the app talks directly to your own server, and the token is stored securely on your device. Just looking? Tap "Explore the public demo" on the first screen to browse a read-only demo workspace β€” no token needed. WHAT YOU CAN DO β€’ Tasks β€” start a coding task for your AI assistant, follow the live session, and send follow-ups when it needs input. Active work up front; finished tasks tucked under Done. β€’ Live terminal β€” the task view renders your workspace's real terminal, the same session the web dashboard shows. β€’ Apps β€” see the dev servers running in your workspace and open them in-app. Split the screen to watch your app change while the assistant works on it. β€’ Desktop β€” your one-tap launchers (build prompts, URLs, shell commands), shared with the web dashboard. β€’ Memory β€” browse what your workspace remembers. β€’ Metrics β€” live CPU, memory, and disk, plus service health. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts. No analytics. No third-party services. The app connects only to the workspace host you configure, over HTTPS, using your token. kube-coder itself is open source β€” read the code, run your own, or try the demo: github.com/imran31415/kube-coder
