Colima will show the path to the docker socket so I have a
[Coder template](./docker-code-server/main.tf) that prompts the Coder admin to
enter the docker socket as a Terraform variable.

## Why am I getting this "remote host doesn't meet VS Code Server's prerequisites" error when opening up VSCode remote in a Linux environment?

![VS Code Server prerequisite](https://github.com/coder/coder/assets/10648092/150c5996-18b1-4fae-afd0-be2b386a3239)

It is because, more than likely, the supported OS of either the container image
or VM/VPS doesn't have the proper C libraries to run the VS Code Server. For
instance, Alpine is not supported at all. If so, you need to find a container
image or supported OS for the VS Code Server. For more information on OS
prerequisites for Linux, please look at the VSCode docs.
