In this lockdown, I've committed to a lot of projects and I feel I have worked on none of them - sad right 😢!!!
Well, I redeemed myself in some voluntary online lessons I'm carrying on with a team and it has @chrosbie(her dev.to account, twitter handle) and other facilitators.
Last Saturday I led a class on Introduction to HTML and I believe it was a success(hopefully). Later in the week, I set some exercises for my students.
As any good teacher would be, I had to go through the assignments I gave my students and one of them was using online editors like codesandbox, codepen,Glitch,jsfiddle etc
So I went through the different online editors and so far, codesandbox is my best, WHY???
It is because of the following reasons:-
- You can create any project be it a static page(HTML) / Vanilla js or in any framework, cool right 👍!!!
- Can
create
a Github repo (Export to GitHub), yes, without leaving the site but doing it codesandbox itself. - Can
import
an existing GitHub repo. - Can still
create Github pages
, oh this is so cool 😊. - Then you can
commit
changes to your repo, create a pull request(PR). - Can go live -
create a live session
and share the link with your colleagues. - Can
publish your project to Netlify
- Oh yes, this is the super coolest 😃 feature for me.
Feel free to checkout my codesandbox projects on Lailah Grant , my GitHub repo on my W3 schools recap, my GitHub Page on my W3 schools recap
Go check codesandbox out, discover/explore cool features by yourself and it will be the best experience ever. 😀
Thanks for your time
, stay safe
, social distance
and wash
your hands

I learned about Gitpod.
It gives you access to a VSCode instance in the cloud !
It has several restrictions though (see pricing).
You can try it for free if you want a taste of what GitHub Codespaces are going to be !
Wow thanks for sharing, I am surely going to check it out... 🥳🥳🥳
codesandbox is my go-to, for quicker access jsbin is my choice
Wow 😮
Love the summary of your post, straight to the point
Thanks dear... Thanks for your time
