About Remote Vibe Coding

Remote Vibe Coding is a tool to automate a provision of a regular, private VPS, with a preset of tools ready to vibe code.

🚀 Click and go!

It's so simple you can do it right from your mobile phone. You just need to copy a text into your VPS provider `Create VPS` form.

🔧 All the tools

Claude Code, Web Server, SSL, GitHub cli, Domains for Terminal and Apps

📱 On your mobile phone

You get a user/password to access a URL with a terminal (or multi), so you can start vibe coding!

⚡ Async, persisted

The tasks run in background. Leave the session running, and revisit later!

🗑️ Disposable by Design

Quick provisioning (couple of minutes). Easy to destroy when done. Cost-effective. Perfect for experimentation and learning.

Getting started

The procedure is to provision a VPS, in your provider, with a configuration script, `cloud-init`.

Let's get it in the next section.

Experimental

This is at an experimental phase! I'm using it, but only when I go out and can/want to remove vibe code. In this phase, I'm looking for people to use and feedback, don't expect a polished product just yet!

Cloud-init configuration

Copy this content to the Cloud-init section. Follow the instructions mentioned above.

Note: Form data is never sent anywhere, they just get changed in the text for convenience!

Terminal in a browser App, passowrd protected

Define the username and password to access the Web Terminal:

Username for Terminal Webapp

For the Terminal Webapp

Password

For the Terminal Webapp

Public SSH key

Optional: For the non-root linux user - advanced users

Let's understand the steps:

Go to your provider of VPS, to create a Server/VPS/Droplet.
Pick your size/specs. I typically do this in Hetzner, and pick image: Apps -> Docker CE
- It's Ubuntu24 LTS, Docker pre-installed.
We add the cloud-init configuration. This will automate a lot of manual steps!
The server gets deployed, it boots up, and the automation runs.
We wait a couple of minutes.
The terminal is ready for use at https://revico.[VPS_IP].sslip.io, password protected.

What do we get?

Web-based terminal access with xterm.js, behind user/password.
Async sessions start something and come back later, things will run in the background.
Multi-session support - open multiple terminals.
Pre-installed development tools:
- Node.js 24
- GitHub CLI (gh)
- Claude Code CLI
- Docker
Automatic SSL via Caddy and sslip.io
4 ready-to-use domains
- https://revico.<IP>.sslip.io → Terminal app (port 3000)
- https://project1.<IP>.sslip.io → Your app (port 3001)
- https://project2.<IP>.sslip.io → Your app (port 3002)
  - https://project3.<IP>.sslip.io → Your app (port 3003) Just ask the AI to run the websites in these ports, ready to use Or have it to change Caddy config (/etc/caddy/Caddyfile) to tweak.
