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 also 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 Platform and better integration with Google Cloud tools like Cloud Source Repositories, Cloud Storage and a variety of Cloud libraries.
You can use Cloud Code with VS Code, IntelliJ, or Cloud Shell.
