❗ This is a proof of concept (PoC). If Node.js for Debian unstable (sid) is updated to v22, this may no longer work. The situation will become (more) stable once Debian 13 (aka trixie) is released – in summer 2025.

@sakthivel-axim @karthick-govindaraj @archanox Could any of you confirm that the Linux/RISC-V releases of Thank you. |

@benz0li I tried the linked deb install above, and setup the service, but it didn't come up. I'm not sure if I'm missing a step or a dependency. |

@archanox Thank you for the feedback. On a AArch64 machine, On a RISC-V machine, I will start a build1 with an unofficial Linux/RISC-V Node.js binary from https://unofficial-builds.nodejs.org/. Maybe that produces a different result. Time measurements:

@archanox I have rebuilt once more using Node.js v20.14.0 to match the version that was used to build VS Code v1.92.2. Thank you for testing. Feedback is welcome. |

@benz0li unfortunately I made some irreversible changes to my environment, and I'm not sure how to get into recovery mode. So it may be a while before I can test again. |

hi @benz0li

Nothing that I am aware of. |

I have installed Code Server on a Linux machine, and the UI of the debugger tab looks similar to VS Code.
After installing the debugger extension, we can set breakpoints and debug the program, as shown in the image below.
In your build, I haven't seen any way to access debugging. |

|
@karthick-govindaraj Thank you for testing! ℹ️ Please be aware that not all extensions [that rely on Linux binaries] will work on Linux/RISC-V. |
|
@karthick-govindaraj @archanox Unofficial and untested builds are now published at https://gitlab.b-data.ch/coder/code-server/-/releases. FYI @code-asher |
What is your suggestion?
Build releases for Linux/RISC-V (64-bit).
Why do you want this feature?
The next stable version of Debian (13, aka trixie) is expected to ship with RISC-V 64-bit support.
Are there any workarounds to get this functionality today?
Do not know yet: I am trying to build
code-serverin aubuntu:20.04image.Are you interested in submitting a PR for this?
Maybe.
