Octo Product Overview
The easiest way to run your code anywhere — locally, remotely, and in the cloud.
What is Octo?
Octo is a developer tool that lets you run your code seamlessly across devices and environments. Start a server on your high-end workstation or remote machine, connect runners for execution, and use the Octo client or VS Code extension to run projects instantly — no setup hassle.
How it Works
1. Start Server
Launch octo-server on your remote machine or workstation.
2. Run Runner
