Comment on Show HN: Codebox - Open-source cloud and desktop IDEparent

Comments

Hi Aaron from FriendCode speaking (Codebox author),

The IDE itself isn't tied to specific VMs, it can run on your own server, your own desktop/laptop or our cloud.

We provide stacks for our cloud solution https://www.codebox.io/.

We provide stacks and VMs for all common languages and frameworks (PHP, Java, Dart, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, C/C++, Lua) as of right now.

The community can also contribute new stacks providing support for other languages.

Hope this helps :)

Oh, that's pretty interesting. Going to try this out - maybe this will be the first usable C++ IDE under Linux for me :)

Oh, and Rust support would be awesome. But I guess that's too early.

/edit: I like that it runs cmatrix in my browser: http://i.imgur.com/ZDiJ5Tw.png ;)

I've played with Rust a bit as well (with Mozilla's servo engine) and it's pretty cool.

I don't think it's an overly common request, but I could definitely add a Rust stack (we already have a Go one).

cmatrix :)

Any plans for supporting LXC or similar container solutions. They're much cheaper on the server side if you want to host a solution like this.
