Being cloud based is this "Code Anywhere", or "Code anywhere where you have Internet access"? The latter, in my case, would be "Code in less places than you could with your laptop and standard offline dev tools".
- damian2000 12y agoWhen was the last time you did any development without internet access though? For me at least, I've found it to be pretty much a necessity.
- phragg 12y agoKeep a copy of your favorite Bootstrap/Foundation. Have XAMPP running or some local server. Go have a blast.
- patrickg 12y agoI travel a lot by train, which means a broken internet connection most of the time. Or when I stay in hotels or on a customer's site without wifi (3G doesn't always work well enough).
- donkeybanana 12y agoI gave a personal instance of the Cloud 9 (https://c9.io/ https://c9.io/) IDE a go a year or so back. Using git locally and enabling git on the server gave me collaborative and offline options. I think some form of VCS access to these services determines their ultimate usability.
- aaronbasssett 12y agoI have a complete copy of my production environment running locally in vagrant. I can code and run tests (3rd party APIs are all mocked) without any internet connection. I even have all the docs I could need cached offline in Dash. The only thing I am missing is a local pypi to cache my commonly used 3rd party apps. I use my laptop a lot on the go. Trains, Airlines, Pubs, Coffeeshops, and so on. Some places will have Wifi, or others I'll be able to tether. But I don't like to rely on having it to be productive.
- e12e 12y agoCan't speak for parent, but for me: on a train (lots of tunnels - no really, lots of tunnels[1]), on an airplane and in an airport (no free wifi) -- quite recently.
