Glitch is an online IDE with focus on collaboration and community features.
It reduces the time to get code up and running and share the code as well as collaborate with other people in real time.

Glitch allow you to create unlimited projects and clone existing projects from Github and other users on Glitch.

Glitch keeps track of the changes made to the project and allows to easily revert to the previous state (even showing the diff between the current state and a specific point in time).

PROJECT_DOMAIN environment variable is useful when we want to run a specific piece of code only inside/outside of Glitch.

You can ask for help on public projects and the help request is automagically tagged to provide better context.

You can have private projects (but you can't ask for help on them) and invite other people to collaborate on any project.

Does it happen to any of you that editing an new, empty project brings your CPU load to 100%? 🤔

It's not like I have had that much use for Glitch so far, but that's certainly keeping me from using it.

Glitch has become my go-to for developing prototypes for the web. It’s super fast, organized and I can view my changes instantly. I honestly feel like I can code in half the time.
