Heads up! On October 1, we introduced Gitpod Flex. You can swap between documentation by using the switcher in the left navigation bar.

Environment classes

Environment classes define the specification of the environments run by your runners. The AWS runner comes with a number of default environment classes. Feel free to review these, disable some, or create your own classes.

Add a AWS runner

Once an environment class is created, only its name and description can be updated. To change any of the class configuration values, create a new class and optionally disable the previous class.

Disabled classes cannot be used to create new environments, but existing environments from those classes will continue to work, and can continue to be started.
