Codeanywhere vs. Replit

If you're looking for a VS Code-like online environment with containers to spin up a dev environment or execute code and scripts it is a good fit. The environments are very customizable, and, all said and done, the price is fair. If you're looking for a remote code editor that allows you to connect via SFTP/SSH and edit the remote files, it isn't quite as seamless as it used to be. I still haven't found any all-cloud alternative, but it could be better.

Replit is incredible for fast prototyping and then actually bringing it to life. One area it could improve would be allowing for easier connecting one app to another. Being able to create multiple apps inside of one ecosystem that can speak to each other would be a game-changer. That being said, Replit is still the best I've seen anywhere in the market for what it does.

• Charges your Credit Card
• Pushes you upgrade beacuse of the limitations (completely untrue)
• Gaslights customers that reach out to support.

• Since some updates a couple of years ago, using Codeanywhere as a remote code editor rather than a container-based development environment has been more cumbersome and difficult.
• The modular nature of connections and containers seems like a good idea, but they don't always work properly.
• It's difficult sometimes to share a connection or container together with a collaborator.

I've used CodeTasty, which is much more of a straight remote code editor, but their dev team is entirely unresponsive, and I became uncomfortable storing credentials with them, so I pulled everything from them and went back to Codeanywhere. VS code is similar but not fully online. While I know that they've released a fully online version, I haven't had the time or wherewith-all to make it work in the capacity I need. Codeanywhere is still the best solution I've found.

Replit wins because it has the best combination of internal tools that work compared to how easy it is. I am not a developer, and I find Replit to be the absolute easiest. I have taught thousands of people how to use Replit. Many of these people came from other platforms, but when I showed them Replit, their assessment lines up with mine. Replit makes it easiest across the board without sacrificing power and capability
