Koding vs PaizaCloud Cloud IDE: What are the differences?
Koding: A new way for developers to work. Koding is a feature rich cloud-based development environment complete with free VMs, an attractive IDE & sudo level terminal access!; PaizaCloud Cloud IDE: Browser-based web development environment. PaizaCloud IDE is a flexible browser-based web development environment. You can choose between Floating window mode like desktop OS, or Tab window mode. You can run File manager, Editor, Terminal to develop web applications.
Koding and PaizaCloud Cloud IDE can be primarily classified as "Cloud IDE" tools.
Some of the features offered by Koding are:
- Free virtual machine (VM) with Ubuntu, root access, apt-get, and many commonly used tools
- Built-in Terminal with 256-color support
- All languages, databases, and command-line tools are supported
On the other hand, PaizaCloud Cloud IDE provides the following key features:
- Extensible PaizaCloud app
- Floating window manager
- Supports Jupyter notebook
I am going to learn machine learning and self host an online IDE, the tool that i may use is Python, Anaconda, various python library and etc. which tools should i go for? this may include Java development, web development. Now i have 1 more candidate which are visual studio code online (code server). i will host on google cloud
The main contenders here are VS code and Eclipse, because Koding is meant to be used by large companies and by devs who know what they are doing. Both VS code and Eclipse have pros and cons, but for someone who wants to learn, VS Code is a much better choice as it has a very simple UI and plugins are easier to find and download.
Eclipse isn't meant for learning purposes and was designed with the intent to be used by professionals. Also it is an amazing IDE for java, but isn't so good in other languages, while VS code is much more efficient in a vast number of languages.
The only likely issue you might be facing with vs code is that, at times, it can be a resource hog, and in extreme cases it is possible to crash. But it is very rare and I recommend you have at least 8GB ram and at least a dual 1.6 GHz CPU.
