Coder is a node.js application, so it also work on Mac. Here's how I got it to work (assuming you have Homebrew installed):

    brew install redis node
    git clone https://github.com/googlecreativelab/coder.git
    cd coder/coder-base
    npm install
    npm start
    
Now login to https://localhost:8081/ (All communication happens over SSL).



Doesn't work for me:

    $ npm start

    > coder-base@0.0.1 start     /Users/seclorum/hak/coder/coder-base
    > node server.js

    no certificate found. generating self signed cert.
    WARNING: unhandled exception: Error: ENOENT, no such file or directory 'certs/server.key'

EDIT: I figured it out - turns out I had a buggy version of Postgress.app installed on my machine, which had been shipped with a poorly configured openssl binary. Removing this from my PATH, so as to be using the system version of openssl (/usr/bin/openssl) fixed the problem ..


Note for those who try on Linux: I've had to add a local user "pi".
