Getting code-server set up with Ubuntu 18.04 was a little tricky as their docs don’t really get into the details of how to set things up… at all. So here’s how to set up code-server on Ubuntu 18.04 on your own domain.

I wrote a node.js server that listens on port 3000 (with an index page to be served by a regular server) that can do rudimentary control of rhythmbox.
