## Documentation

# Deploy and Host PyCharm in your browser on Railway

The PyCharm Python IDE running in the cloud and streamed to any browser. Write, run and debug Python from any device with a full IDE, while your projects and settings stay on a volume.

## About Hosting PyCharm in your browser

The template runs the open source LinuxServer.io image `pycharm:latest` as one Railway service. PyCharm runs inside a minimal desktop and is streamed to your browser over Railway's HTTPS domain on port 3000. HTTP basic auth protects it with `CUSTOM_USER` and a generated `PASSWORD` that you copy from the service Variables. A volume is mounted at `/config`, so your projects, interpreters and settings survive restarts and redeploys. The first boot takes a minute or two.

## Common Use Cases

- Python development from a Chromebook, tablet or low-powered laptop
- Running long scripts and notebooks in the cloud while your laptop is closed
- Teaching or learning Python with a full IDE and nothing to install

## Dependencies for PyCharm in your browser Hosting

- No other services: one container plus a volume
- Any modern browser on the device you open it from

### Implementation Details

Open the Railway domain and sign in with `CUSTOM_USER` and `PASSWORD`; PyCharm opens full screen. Upload and download files and copy and paste between your device and the cloud through the side panel. Give the service at least 3 GB of memory.
