Codebox & Cloud9 share some similarities (IDE's built with web technologies).
However we have a big emphasis on modularity, ease of use. We have a Desktop app (linux/mac) coming in the pipes.
Our cloud version has offline support (so you can code even when the network cuts).
And a handful of other things. For example our hosting platform supports stacks (swappable VM images), that allow us to provide our clients with tailored environments to suit their needs (languages & frameworks they use).
Overall Codebox & Cloud9 are both interesting projects. And the Cloud9 team has definitely built some interesting stuff as well.
- filearts 13y agoIt might be worth noting that some of the key components used by Codebox are actually developped by Ajax.org (the Cloud9 team) like the ACE code editor component and the vfs system. Thank you for keeping your source open. Interesting to poke around in the internals.
- belluchan 13y agoCloud9 contributes to ace, but it's also a Mozilla project. Bespin was merged into Cloud9's editor, and now both contribute to Ace.
- janjongboom 13y agoBespin was merged into it, yes. But there have not been major contributions by Mozilla in recent times.
