> We are planning for an even better experience in the future: one where we can integrate and support more advanced features, such as a live environment to test your code against This. Please. I'm playing with a similar concept for GitHub: https://twitter.com/pomber/status/1003416752146075648
Wow, very cool. Lots of new players in this space: https://repl.it , https://glitch.me , and now GitLab (and I'd be surprised if GitHub doesn't follow in tow). Cloud9's acquisition really left a big hole in the market. AFAIK there's still nothing out there that gives you a decent code editor (edit multiple files, have multiple tabs open, etc) that also gives you access to a Linux shell and ability to expose ports lik…

Great to hear this! Please leave any feedback in our issue tracker mentioned in the article!
...but, there is one issue preventing my company from fully adopting it. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/5981 Once this is completed/implemented, our entire company will be migrating our old school document system to GitLab, using static pages, merge request approvals and this Web IDE. If push comes to shove, I'll have to fork and do it myself ;)

It is sort of available but the writing is on the wall. They haven't updated any of the ubuntu images since 14.04, and you cannot update them yourself. They really want you to move to Amazon's pay as you go scheme instead of one flat rate. (I think).
Right, I don't think anyone would recommend using Cloud9 as in c9.io, but AWS Cloud9 ( https://aws.amazon.com/cloud9/ ) is still a perfectly valid option and does get updates. For my usage, AWS Cloud9 has turned out far cheaper since the EC2 instance shuts down when I'm not using it. I can actually keep it within the free tier, which is a long way from $20/mo I was paying before.
I would think the lowest grade machine is the equivalent of $5/Mo.
In cloud9 I like to have a node machine, a python machine, a rails machine and one to experiment on the front end, one for Data science. Basically I want to muck about on a clean machine.
Is there any way to change the font size in the Web IDE? Is there a dark mode?
Thank you for this!

Honestly I generally don't want to do my entire development on a Web IDE, but I do think it's very useful for a repo hosting site to have editing tools, as I often find myself wanting to fix something quick away from my setup. Web IDEs in general are a great concept though, mostly because developers generally love having their editor customized the way they like it, and from there, having it in the cloud accessible f…
I've heard this a lot since around 2012/13 when I first became aware of C9, and even gave it a go. Granted it was and is impressive as a technical achievement, but I really don't see the use case at all, other than as something to use as a quick fix embedded by a repo host. My laptop is a tool I use every single day and have with me almost all of the time. I do not need internet connectivity to remain productive, whi…
Which could very well be a determining feature in where people host or which Git provider they use.
It's a pretty editor, but it's not an IDE. No build tools, no debugging, no navigation, no refactoring, etc.
We are hard at work! Time and iterations are needed. A lot is coming your way, it is a very exciting project!

> The AWS interface is still a byzantine nightmare of a labyrinth I've heard this enough times to know that it's widely agreed upon, but I've never understood it personally.
Given the absolutely massive and technical amount of features that aws requires, it's not surprising (or even worthy of condemnation) that the interface can get somewhat convoluted. That said, I wonder if there is a stripped down version of that interface that would better accommodate a hypothetical cohort of extremely common use cases. I would bet there isnt, which is why the interface is so.... Deep.

I have been keeping a list[0] of Awesome Online IDEs that you might be interested in. It's difficult to explain the differences between them (in one line of text) so you might have to try it out yourself. [0]: https://github.com/styfle/awesome-online-ide
