Customize Workspaces Launch Button

About 151 wordsLess than 1 minute

Customize Workspaces Launch Button explains how to change the launch button's appearance and default resource size.

When to use: when the development entry point should match your project — for example rewording the button, using a hover image to explain its purpose, or standardizing the default CPU count.

The configuration file is .cnb/settings.yml in the repository root of the default branch. The following is a complete example:

.cnb/settings.yml
workspace:
  launch:
    button:
      name: Launch Cloud-Native Development
      description: Enter the online coding environment with one click
      hoverImage: .cnb/launch-hover.gif
    cpus: 8
    disabled: false
    autoOpenWebIDE: false

For the customizable fields and other parameters (such as auto-opening the WebIDE after launch, disabling the button, and more), see Workspaces Launch Button Customization.
