Ask HN: Do you use a cloud dev environment?
2 by jzelinskie | 0 comments on Hacker News.
In the 2010s, I knew lots of start-ups that tried to create web IDEs and never got traction because developers are fanatics about their tools, but more recent efforts have been done by large companies (GitHub, Google, etc...). - Do you think success in the space is due to the ubiquity of Monaco (Visual Studio Code)? - Do you think these environments are best kept for fly-by contributions (e.g. loading up GitHub Codespaces on a repo and firing off a PR to a project you'll never contribute to again)? - Do your projects have these environments to encourage first-time contributors? - Do you personally use these environments for long term development? This post is coming off sounding market researchy, but I promise you that I have no association with any of these products/projects. I've used a terminal-based editor (vim/neovim/helix) my entire career, so I feel detached from what others think about these technologies.
