As a CS student we used Cloud9 IDE for developing and code sharing in assignments -- we didn't know what Git was and using it didn't become a requirement until later semesters. "Don't touch anything, let me compile first" was a common utterance.
Haven't looked into it for a while, apparently it was bought by Amazon and you need an AWS account? Back then it was just open the site and you're coding
- mynameismon 5y agoIf you really want to use something like that, Harvard's CS50 has made it available freely (under their own wrapper of tools): https://ide.cs50.io https://ide.cs50.io
- lostintangent 5y agoSpeaking of education/CS50: we (the Codespaces/Live Share team) have actually been very excited/privileged to collaborate with the amazing CS50 team, as they've built their student experience on top of VS Code/Codespaces (http://code.cs50.io http://code.cs50.io). Lowering the barrier of entry for learners, and supporting student success, is a huge goal of ours, and so I'm looking forward to getting our tools in the hands of more developers, and iterating based on feedback.

- nsonha 5y agoVery cool of Harvard to keep c9 alive, I have fond memory of it. Having said, vscode is just superior in everyway.
- genericacct 5y agoThe open source version is still available as c9sdk on GH, some docker images are available on dockerhub
