Ember 2 is dead? I don't use Ember or Ember 2 and never have but curious why it's not part of the supported frameworks. Same for Vue. Feels like people who make tools are opting to support the frameworks currently most popular. What happens if they fall out of favor in a couple of years?

#42Yeah like the look of this, makes me wonder if one day I can code on a chromebook
Not to hijack, but I've written directly on this topic in case it's useful: https://headmelted.com/coding-on-a-chromebook-84335cce96c8 There are options around (including my own scripts at https://code.headmelted.com ) and the situation is advancing steadily in terms of the tools available.
Looks good, I'd like to try this though https://blog.lessonslearned.org/building-a-more-secure-devel...

#43Earlier quoted context omitted.
I tried one out briefly, no f.lux equivalent made it unusable for me.
Curious - many people swear by f.lux - under what work conditions does not having f.lux make it unbearable? I understand that it adjusts the temperature of the screen to match the current time of day - but I see it as a nice-to-have feature and nothing more than that.
I might have exaggerated a little, since I did use computers without f.lux for 10+ years of my life, but I like to work in the evenings sometimes and I like to also be able to get to bed after that pretty easily.
I woke up early this morning, which sucked, but f.lux made it bearable to use my computer, which would otherwise have hurt my eyes; an hour later when f.lux decided to turn itself off >_Maybe I'm just getting old, but I find the constant white light hard on my eyes.
[EDIT]: I had a Chromebook for a week from work; I simply didn't use it when I got home. Some may argue this is a feature.

Certainly not dead! One of the nice things about VS Code/Monaco is how easy they make it to embed the editor in the browser.
With Glimmer, for example, I was able to hack together this playground with full intellisense over a weekend: http://glimmer-playground.netlify.com/
Source code here: https://github.com/tomdale/glimmer-repl (itself a Glimmer app that wraps Monaco)

I have used Codeanywhere from a chromebook over the last couple of years. Not for heavy duty stuff but it gets me by in a pinch if I'm not at my own computer and need/want to edit stuff on my own server. Otherwise codepen etc is fine for me for quick on-the-go stuff.
I did this too. It is mostly fine as you say but it does feel a bit clunky at times in my opinion.
I really just wish vscode could run effectively native (local file system) in a browser tab. Throw in a few other goodies and it would be a truly competitive OS for developers in my opinion. For me its just so much nicer to use than most Windows and Linux flavours I have tried at various points. It even has a few wins here or there over OSX.

#46Creator here — thanks for posting our project! For more info, check out my Medium announcement post here: https://medium.com/@ericsimons/stackblitz-online-vs-code-ide... :) Happy to answer any q's & would love to hear your feedback!
Sorry for posting two comments. Could you please explain what is the difference between your project and this: https://github.com/CompuIves/codesandbox-client
And this is the online editor: https://codesandbox.io/s/new
Re: Stackblitz – Online VS Code Editor for Angular and React
#47This looks really cool, just one quick question - I'm not really interested in all that Angular/React stuff, I just want my favourite VS Code in the browser (as a 'thin' client between my browser and my VPS, for example). Is this thing modular to allow for this, or is this meant to be just an Angular/React tool? Thanks!
We're trying to make an initial implementation of with the VScode Monaco editor happen in GitLab 9.5 on August 22, see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/12198
Re: Stackblitz – Online VS Code Editor for Angular and React
#48This is AWESOME!! Great work. I noticed that the GitHub repo is missing source code; when do you plan on releasing it?
Re: Stackblitz – Online VS Code Editor for Angular and React
#49This looks great, but why is it better than say, plnkr? Other than the tooling and some features like offline use etc. It's essentially the same yeah?
i also like https://glitch.com/

What about putting the effort to support Vue or Ember? What happens if they fall out too?
They never suggested those frameworks are dead or inferior. They just made a product and launched it.
I mean I imagine adding support for each framework takes a lot of work and if the audience is too small then they might feel the time was better spent making the current three frameworks work well.
This is the idea of mvp right?
They just released it. Should they have waited until they had X framework that Y person feels they are missing? Maybe 50 frameworks added later they can release it and you'd be happy at that point?
Seems like more negative with nothing really added.
I thought HN had more quality comments but i've been seeing these kind of low-effort comments that are mostly negative that seem more about complaining then being constructive. I hope you can understand where I am coming from and I hope if you enjoyed their product they are considering adding support for a framework you enjoy.
