Online IDEs

GitHub's Codespaces is a very expensive online development environment powered by Visual Studio Code. It allows developers to make real-time changes in GitHub repositories. The web-based IDEs have gained a great traction among developers. The ease of use and enhanced collaboration opportunities allow developers to easily perform their work.

Codespaces is currently in beta and works only on Chromium-based browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Here is a list of alternatives to GitHub Codespaces that you can use:”

  • AWS Cloud9: “The Cloud9 coding environment offers paired programming experience to help developers track changes on the project. It supports wide range of languages like Python, PHP, JavaScript and more. It provides browser-based shell experience, allowing users to install additional software and push changes with 'git push'”
    • “AWS Cloud9 is a cloud-based integrated development environment (IDE) that lets you write, run, and debug your code with just a browser. It includes a code editor, debugger, and terminal. Cloud9 comes prepackaged with essential tools for popular programming languages, including JavaScript, Python, PHP, and more, so you don’t need to install files or configure your development machine to start new projects. Since your Cloud9 IDE is cloud-based, you can work on your projects from your office, home, or anywhere using an internet-connected machine. Cloud9 also provides a seamless experience for developing serverless applications enabling you to easily define resources, debug, and switch between local and remote execution of serverless applications. With Cloud9, you can quickly share your development environment with your team, enabling you to pair program and track each other's inputs in real time.” Fair Use Source: https://aws.amazon.com/cloud9
  • GitPod: “This is a ready-to-code environment that isolates various projects and also builds your code faster. With GitPod IDE, you can choose any project from GitHub, clone the repository, and start coding online. The robustness of GitPod has made it popular among companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Uber.”
  • RepLit: “The tool supports over 50 languages on its online IDE, thereby catering to a wide range of developers for building various applications. You can collaborate with teammates, or colleagues in real-time. To further enhance the collaboration, it also helps you integrate GitHub. You can easily import, run and collaborate on repositories.”
  • Koding: “The development environment offers a fully automated experience on any infrastructure including microservices and containers. It is focused on empowering developers by enabling real-time collaboration rather than configuring complex environments.”
  • CodePen: “This is a popular online code editor for front-end developers who mostly use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create, style, and position the website layouts. Developers can build, test, design, and deploy websites using CodePen. You can simultaneously work on the same project in real-time using this tool.”

Hosted Jupyter Notebooks

  • Amazon SageMaker: “Amazon SageMaker is another popular end-to-end machine learning platform. With many additional features, from data labeling to further training and deployment abilities, some users find the advanced functionality of SageMaker to be a big advantage. That being said, SageMaker does have a bad rep for being non-intuitive, outright confusing, and fulfilling the adage “jack of all trades, master of none.” Fair Use Source: https://blog.paperspace.com/best-google-colab-alternatives
