How do I access my website's code?

How can I download a copy of the code for my website from my Linode?

To download a copy of your website data, you'll need to have SSH/SFTP configured on your Linode. All of Linode's images come with this pre-enabled on port 22, but if you either don't have it setup, or wish to ensure that it's configured securely, I recommend checking out this post, which discusses setting up secure access so that you can download files from your Linode.

This post will give you instructions on finding the root directory of your website (where the code lives), and you can find instructions on connecting via SFTP to download files in our guides.
