No infrastructure setup required: new SaaS offering coming this summer
Gitpod helps 1.7m developers worldwide ship software faster. With a single click, access automated and standardized development environments fully configured with the tools and dependencies you need to productively and securely write code.
In our last round of big product updates, we introduced self-hosting Gitpod via a new runner-based architecture or using Gitpod Desktop for local development. The final piece to ensure the right deployment options across all use cases leverage our new architecture is to make Gitpod available as a traditional SaaS offering.
We’re excited to announce a newly available way to use Gitpod as SaaS is launching this summer!
