Collabora Online Development Edition (CODE) is the development version of Collabora Online, a server that enables viewing and editing office documents in a web browser using the LibreOffice/Collabora Office core. It is intended for testing, home use, and small teams, and is typically updated on a frequent release cadence.

Key Features

  • Browser-based editing and viewing for common office document formats
  • Multi-user collaborative editing with real-time updates
  • Server component (coolwsd) designed to be integrated behind a reverse proxy
  • Native Linux packages available for Debian/Ubuntu (deb) and RPM-based distributions
  • Central configuration via coolwsd.xml and service management via systemd

Use Cases

  • Adding online document editing to an existing collaboration platform
  • Evaluating Collabora Online features and compatibility before production deployment
  • Home or small-team shared editing of office documents in a private environment

Limitations and Considerations

  • Not recommended for production environments compared to Collabora Online supported editions
  • Typically expects TLS certificates by default; many deployments use reverse-proxy TLS termination instead

CODE is a practical way to run and test the Collabora Online stack on your own infrastructure while retaining the core collaborative editing capabilities. For production-grade deployments, consider the supported enterprise offerings and operational guidance.
