Ask HN: Crossplatform Editor/IDE

3 points by anonyfox 12y ago

Does anyone know a cloud-based or crossplatform code editor/IDE that works on OSX, iOS (iPad and for emergencies iPhone) and Windows? An in-browser app is acceptable and I'd pay for it, but the following features must be included: - talk to github: clone something, modify, commit && push - run node.js and meteor.js - browser preview and shell (bash) access Currently I'm constantly switching between computers at work / sparetime, and often an iPad is the only device I have with me. Any experiences?

cloud9 and nitrous.io meet the in browser ide requirement, but im not sure about the github and meteor integration. nitrous works with node tho.

  Nirous.io seems promising, meteor (since it's based on node.js) may run on their boxes (http://mark.shropshires.net/blog/developing-meteorjs-apps-ipad http://mark.shropshires.net/blog/developing-meteorjs-apps-ip...), git is integrated, and their devblog states that they improved the experience on iPads recently. I'll definitly try it out, thanks! Cloud9 seems to be unsopported on iOS devices... very disappointing since on desktop systems I already have (insert your dev stack) available.

I not tested on iOs devices but https://www.codebox.io/ https://www.codebox.io/ is interesting IDE and it's open source if you want install it on your server.
