  • Visual Studio Code

    Visual Studio Code

  • * Develop on your iPad. You can upload/download files (and even store them in the cloud using the Files app), as well as open repositories remotely with the built-in GitHub Repositories extension.

    Also various interesting URLs are now possible:

    or example, change https://github.com/microsoft/vscode to 'https://vscode.dev/github.com/Microsoft/vscode'.

    For Azure Repos, do the same. Change https://dev.azure.com/… to 'https://vscode.dev/dev.azure.com /…'.

    As you can see, vscode.dev URLs are a powerful way for us to deliver new, lightweight experiences. Another example is that Live Share guest sessions will also be available in the browser through the https://vscode.dev/liveshare URL. The sessionId will be passed to the extension to make joining a seamless experience.

  • theia

    Eclipse Theia is a cloud & desktop IDE framework implemented in TypeScript.

  • It seems to be like Theia https://theia-ide.org/ which is based on vscode and runs in the browser. It's used by this project to give a full lab/workspace and ide in the cloud:https://www.eclipse.org/che/ (it's actually closer to vscode even though eclipse is in the name).

  • upm

    ⠕ Universal Package Manager - Python, Node.js, Ruby, Emacs Lisp.

  • >However, I'm not sure who this is for. Downloading and installing an application is not a particularly big ask for the type of people who use VSCode.

    True, but IMO doing anything we possibly can to get from individuals who want to code -> actually coding faster and easier with minimal setup is a huge win. I remember starting out using codeblocks for C++. My biggest hurdle was figuring out how to get a compiler integrated with the IDE. https://repl.it is doing first class work in this space. I highly recommend you check them out as well.
