Cloud Code provides IDE support for the full development cycle of Kubernetes and Cloud Run applications, from creating and customizing a new application from sample templates to running your finished application. Cloud Code supports you along the way with run-ready samples, out-of-the-box configuration snippets, and a tailored debugging experience — making developing with Kubernetes and Cloud Run a whole lot easier!
While Cloud Code works with any cloud platform, it provides a streamlined experience for easy creation of clusters hosted on Google Cloud and better integration with Google Cloud tools like Cloud Source Repositories, Cloud Storage and Cloud Client Libraries.
You can use Cloud Code with VS Code, IntelliJ, or Cloud Shell.
