What is AWS Cloud9?

Cloud9 provides a development environment in the cloud. Cloud9 enables developers to get started with coding immediately with pre-setup environments called workspaces, collaborate with their peers with collaborative coding features, and build web apps with features like live preview and browser compatibility testing. It supports more than 40 languages, with class A support for PHP, Ruby, Python, JavaScript/Node.js, and Go.

What is CodeSandbox?

CodeSandbox allows developers to simply go to a URL in their browser to start building. This not only makes it easier to get started, it also makes it easier to share. You can just share your created work by sharing the URL, others can then (without downloading) further develop on these sandboxes.

What is StackBlitz?

StackBlitz is the browser-based IDE that eliminates time-consuming local configuration and lets you spend 
more time coding. Develop with Next.js, React, Angular, Vite, and more in a Node.js development environment entirely in your browser
