Runnable – Edit, run, and share code in your browser
- duaneb 14y agoIs this javascript only?
- akinder 14y agoI was able to see the homepage but then the site went down before I could get any further.
- holms 14y agoand it's dead.. means it's not ready for hacker news invasion =))))
- pablasso 14y agoThey are way more stable than a few years ago but I just never trust browsers to write anything at all.
- ebbv 14y agoAt the risk of giving away a million dollar idea; nobody's gonna wanna really edit things in the browser. Too risky and missing features of whatever their favorite editor is. But how about letting people push their code up via git? So you could have a runnable browser window open, push your changes up to your runnable repo and then hit run? If this does turn out to be the key that breaks this open please remember it was my idea.
- bmuon 14y agoHere's another idea. JSBin is doing something pretty awesome: it uses the HTML5 File API so that you can select a file from your computer and it syncs to different instances of the same bin while you edit it in your favorite editor. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY56fNmn2cE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY56fNmn2cE (keep in mind the video was taken during development, now it's pretty stable). BTW some people like editing in the browser and that's why Cloud9IDE is alive.
- tjmehta 14y agoDrag-and-drop support for files is coming really soon :)
- ykumar6 14y agoStay tuned :) We already offer this in our private beta.
- oinksoft 14y agoI have to remember that line ;^)
- creativename 14y agoSoooort of off-topic, but I've actually had a lot of success using Cloud9 IDE (https://c9.io/ https://c9.io/) as an in-browser editor. It really closely mirrors Sublime Text 2 as far as default functionality and appearance goes. Of course, I'm coming from a Visual Studio IDE background rather than a Vim/Emacs background, so I can't vouch for its usefulness for users more accustomed to that type of work environment. Note: not affiliated with Cloud 9
- ceeK 14y agoAt first I thought this was some sort of JSFiddle but for server backends. Is this what it is aimed at? Or is it more cloud development for teams?
- ykumar6 14y agoFirst reaction sounds about right. We want to make it easy for anyone to share runnable code, across multiple stacks and platforms
- jokecamp 14y agoFor a learning and code sharing facility I think it is very cool. I can try out and hack some code on technologies I have not experimented with yet.
- ykumar6 14y agoGlad to hear!

- dodolab 14y agoLooks cool. is there a way to add dependencies and packages (npm?)?
- zenocon 14y agoLooks really nice, and seems well done. Congrats. I like this a lot...like plnkr.co / jsfiddle for full stack examples.
- ykumar6 14y agoYou got the right idea :) What kind of full stack examples would you like to see?
- santoshnaik1 14y agoTHIS IS AWESOME!!!!
- tantalor 14y agoIn some of the examples that use OAuth, the tokens are things like GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID and GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET. var params = { code: code, client_id: 'GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID', client_secret: 'GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET', redirect_uri: callbackURL, grant_type: 'authorization_code' }; Are these replaced somehow with real values? Where does that happen?
- enos_feedler 14y agoThey are replaced with real values on a proxy server, outside of the node.js process.
- tantalor 14y agoThought so! As I was walking to work I realized this was the easiest way to protect the integrity of the tokens.
- steeve 14y agoSeems awfully similar to http://webshell.io/ http://webshell.io/
- tjmehta 14y agoNot really, webshell looks like there are trying to become an All-in-one API of APIs. Runnable is trying to be a platform for sharing code examples for APIs, modules, and any other full-stack code snippets.
- fonziguy 14y agoLooks like Webshell is integrating APIs into your site, while Runnable is about API discovery, prototyping, learning from others (more of a Stack Overflow direction).
- quanfucius 14y agoLooks really awesome. Good job guys!
- supernayan1 14y agoI want to sign in with GitHub and see my projects run.
- retrograde 14y ago+1 for running my projects. Seems like this has all the pieces already, at least for Node stuff.
- ykumar6 14y agoRunnable.com is hiring. Come help us build something really cool http://runnable.com/about http://runnable.com/about
- ykumar6 14y agoIf you find Runnable.com to be slow, please bear with us. We're getting slammed right now and it should get a lot better with the day.

- mike_ivanov 14y agoDoes anyone know to make the cursor stop blinking in their editor?
- SEJeff 14y agosetterm -cursor off Also put this in ~/.bashrc for a solid yellow non-blinking cursor: echo -n -e '\e[?17;14;224c'
- tectonic 14y agoHere's what I've been looking for: let me put a badge on my open source project on GitHub which launches a Runnable with the project so that people can play with it without having to pull the source and set it up themselves.
- cburgmer 14y agoI am currently trying to set up a demo for a project, and a simple 'plug and play' would be great.
- anindha 14y agoDoes this color scheme look a lot like sublime text? http://www.sublimetext.com/ http://www.sublimetext.com/
- pramodxyle 14y agocool..
- cburgmer 14y agoCopy pasting huge amount of JS libraries does not seem to work for me. Is there a way of uploading files from my local hard drive?
- cburgmer 14y agoSourcing the files from other servers solved that for me. I am still thinking in terms of a locked down jsfiddle I guess.
- mickaelkel 14y agoWhat would be the price of your service or the business model? It seems you will sell our developers APIkey registration...
- patelkathan 14y agocool
- FatalBaboon 14y agoNo code completion... so it's basically a colorful textbox. And it's the nth one I see. Some devs are just bored I guess.
