If you're installing the npm module you'll need certain dependencies to build
the native modules used by VS Code.

You also need at least node v12 installed. See [#1633](https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/1633).

## Ubuntu, Debian

```bash
sudo apt-get install -y \
  build-essential \
  pkg-config \
  libx11-dev \
  libxkbfile-dev \
  libsecret-1-dev
```

## Fedora, CentOS, RHEL

```bash
sudo yum groupinstall -y 'Development Tools'
sudo yum config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools # unnecessary on CentOS 7
sudo yum install -y python2 libsecret-devel libX11-devel libxkbfile-devel
npm config set python python2
```

## macOS
