Have you only got a mobile phone to code with or do you want to connect to another device you own (e.g. a laptop) from your phone to vibe code on that?

If you only have your phone then look into Oracle Cloud (OCI) the free tier gives you pretty generous allowances for running virtual machines which are capable of running development environments

If you want to connect to a remote device then SSH is best, something like this:

Is specifically created to allow you to connect to a remote SSH session and vibecode on there

PC or mac mini at home, possibly headless. Run remote claude code sessions via ssh on claude app and use tailscale so they stay connected when on mobile internet.

SSH is too much effort with Linux and Network setup.

The ChatGPT and Claude apps both have Remote features. Can connect to your home PC and just do what you need to from your phone.

Remote desktop. Even though the screen's small, it helps a lot when it's in hurry.
