The full bottle
Put the complete environment on Soda.
Keep projects, tools, tests, databases, development servers, agents, and long-running work on Soda. Use your laptop for the editor, terminal, and browser over SSH.
Soda OS
Development goes better with Soda.
Install Soda OS on a powerful computer you control. Connect directly over SSH from the computer and tools you already use, then choose whether Soda becomes your complete environment or runs only the work that needs more room.
- Keep your editor, terminal, and browser
- Gaming PC, workstation, mini PC, or VM
- Direct SSH, no remote desktop
Use Soda your way
Pour as much as you need.
Make Soda your complete remote environment, offload selected builds, project services, and coding agents from a local setup, or put one shared system on tap for the team.
Soda on the side
Keep working locally. Offload the heavy parts.
Send selected builds, tests, project services, or additional coding agents to Soda when your computer needs more room.
On tap for the team
Give everyone the same foundation.
Let developers share one Soda machine while choosing whether it becomes their complete environment or additional capacity beside their existing setup.
