Symbiose is a web desktop and web integrated development environment.

Symbiose replicates the desktop environment of a modern operating system on a webpage, using JavaScript to communicate with the remote server. This allows users to save the current desktop state to return to later, much like the hibernation feature in many true operating systems,[1] or integrate their Dropbox, Google Drive and FTP files in the web desktop.[2]

The software is in beta stage.[3]
