Remote Workspaces - Factory Documentation

Remote workspaces let you code anywhere without the “works on my machine” dance. Each workspace is a pre-configured environment that lives in the cloud, boots in seconds and can be customized to run setup commands.

Why use remote workspaces?

Benefit	What it means for you
Zero setup	Open a session and start coding; no local installs or VM juggling.
Consistency	Every teammate (and CI job) runs the exact same environment.
Speed	Heavy builds run on powerful cloud CPUs; your laptop fan stays silent.
Isolation	Experiments live in disposable workspaces, keeping your local machine clean.
Collaboration	Share a workspace link; reviewers jump into the live environment with code and ports already running.
