Codeanywhere Migration

Moving from Codeanywhere to ServerDesk

Move projects, reconnect existing servers, upload files, and recreate familiar workflows when leaving Codeanywhere.

Last updated: 16 June 2026

What to move first

Export project files, preserve hidden configuration files, record environment values securely, and gather the real server credentials you will use in ServerDesk.

Connecting existing servers

ServerDesk works against your real SSH or SFTP endpoints. Once you have the hostname, port, username, and authentication method, create the connection and validate it before you begin editing.

Recreating the workflow

After connection, use Explorer for remote files, Monaco for editing, Terminal for commands and logs, and Robbie AI for code and error analysis. This recreates the main browser-based workflow without depending on a hosted dev container.

First 10 minutes

A clean first pass is: create the account, add the server connection, run the connection test, open Explorer, verify the project path in Terminal, and ask Robbie to explain the first unfamiliar file or error.

Need something else?

Move back into the searchable Help Centre, open the Support Hub, or use the public bug report and feature request routes if this article does not cover your workflow.
