I built a complete cloud IDE that runs entirely in your browser. Here's why I think it matters.
My name is Augustine. I'm a developer and I've spent the last several months building Cloudpen, a professional cloud development environment that works in any browser on any device, including your phone.
I want to share what it is, why I built it, and what makes it different from the other browser IDEs you've probably already tried.
The problem I was solving
The developer tooling stack has become expensive and fragmented. If you're using VS Code, GitHub Pro, Vercel, and GitHub Copilot, you're paying $50 to $80 a month across four separate tools with four separate logins. For developers in emerging markets, that's not a small number. And none of those tools work well on a phone, which for a lot of developers globally is their primary device.
