Ask HN: Self hosted online IDE
6 points by gravypod on Oct 15, 2015 | hide | past | favorite | 6 comments
I know this has been asked a few times in the past but I don't remember any real progress being made in the commends section.

I was wondering if anyone from here uses an online/web based IDE for development that you can host on your own hardware.

I write a lot of C, Java, Python and I think I'll be branching out to a few other languages as well, so it needs to be able to support a wide range of features.

I'm looking for something like this because I'm interested in using a very lightweight and energy efficient laptop for my day to day life (this way it's battery lasts long and it will be lighter then my Y70) and I still want to be able to develop on it.

I love lint and cross class completion features, so those are the biggest plus.

Anyone know of anything?




Cloud9 is worth looking into.

https://github.com/c9


Does it do more than just web-development? I like doing systems level stuff sometimes.


Online at c9.io, they support c and c++. I'd imagine that would translate to the self-hosted edition. I really enjoy the features provided, and so far it has coped well with every language I've thrown at it, including outliers like livescript, purescript, etc..


Cloud9 is fantastic for my purposes, but I generally have it open alongside a ssh session so I can do compiling, grep, etc.


A good vim setup will do what you want...


There's also emacs server.
