Codeanywhere is a cross-platform cloud IDE (integrated development environment) created by Codeanywhere, Inc. Codeanywhere enables users to instantly write, edit, collaborate and run web development projects from a web browser and any mobile device.[3]
Codeanywhere is entirely written in Javascript. The editor is based on CodeMirror and uses OpenVZ containers for its development environments (called DevBoxes). Codeanywhere is platform agnostic, enabling the user to run code in Codeanywhere’s environments called DevBoxes or connect to their own VMs via SSH or FTP protocol and also connect to Dropbox and Google Drive. It supports more than 75 programming languages, including HTML, JavaScript, Node.js, io.js PHP, Ruby, Python, and Go.
History
In 2009 PHPanywhere (the predecessor of Codeanywhere) was launched, which was a web-based FTP client and text editor, designed for PHP.[4] That project stayed idle until May 22, 2013 when the founders launched Codeanywhere.
Codeanywhere raised $600,000 from World Wide Web Hosting on July 15, 2013 when Ben Welch-Bolen became a board member.[5] In August of 2014 Codeanywhere was accepted in Techstars’s Fall Boston Class.[6] In 2014, as part of the TechCrunch Disrupt NY Conference, the audience voted Codeanywhere the best company in Startup Alley.[1]
