Is this available or implementable on Coder (automatic manifest)? Automatic Configuration If your GitHub repositories does not have a manifest to make a stack, Gitpod will attempt to make a stack based on what it understood about your codebase. However, for popular projects, a central repository on GitHub exists to configure a workspace automatically for them without the manifest file to be present.

We're working on something like this with devcontainers. Right now we've had a few people implement this themselves using our integrations. e.g. you can pipe the

coder_git_auth

resource to

github_file

and fetch a file from a repo, then read some basic stuff from it in Terraform. That flow is much more complex than we'd like OOTB though, so we're improving it by adding a simple template you can use that kinda just works.

That would be the only thing I would miss from GitPod and would like to get this feature. Do Coder also have something like the .gitpod.yml manifest too?

we've implemented this feature. it works pretty well and we are using coder in a Gitpod style as our workspaces gets definded by a coder.yaml file which relies inside the git repository.

nice, curious if you can share your implementation Any plans to open it?

Or perhaps contribute back to Coder

I dont think I can open this as this is intelectual property. Sorry for that. But other contribution are planned. So we're give also something back to the community in the future.
