I can't see myself using this regularly, but I can see the value for many people. I can definitely see some value in being able to try stuff out from the browser. Honestly, having to setup and configure your environment and tools is tedious. When you're unfamiliar with the ecosystem, it can take you pretty long to get everything up and running. I think this is more approachable for the average person.

It's probably just me, but: "having to setup and configure your environment and tools is tedious" has never really been a problem for me. Between dotfiles, bookmark backups, and a few choice CLI commands, I can get a *nix/OSX development environment up in under an hour (including downloading and compiling non-standard tools).

  The is a lot of mutation. And that is with practice. Wouldn't if it be nice if we could clone fork undo merge dev environments?
