Overview

CodePicnic is a service that allows you to publish the environment created as described above on the Web.

The author can update and save the environment. The user basically cannot save the file, but when the file is created and re-accessed, the file remains. If you access it from another browser, the file does not remain, so it is probable that you are managing the session with cookies etc. and the environment is created for each session.

price

There is a limit of 20 hours a month, but you can use it for free. It also has a bargain price of $ 9.99 with no restrictions.

Use Case

Since this terminal can be embedded in a web page, you can easily create a tutorial like the one below. I think it is also useful for creating a programming learning site. Try Prediction.IO

In addition to simply providing a console environment, it is possible to check the operation with a simple Web server and share one editor with multiple users for remote pair programming. CodePicnic Features

CodePicnic is a cloud service, but there is a tool called codetainer in OSS. It may be good for the purpose of using your own environment privately from the browser. Security is a concern when it comes to disclosure.
