The Future of CodeSandbox™
Sandboxes
Why Sandboxes?
Friction in sharing code with others
Playing with code is hard
The dev env is getting complicated
But everyone has to install it
Sandboxes
Prototypes
Bug Reports
Workshops
Job Interviews
Examples
Demos
Shareable IDEs are Valuable

Live collaboration
Every branch is shared
Every branch is shared
Every branch is shared
Clicking "Fork" creates new branch
Clicking "Fork" creates new branch
Every branch is backed by a VM
/:owner/:repo/main
/:owner/:repo/feature/branch
Every VM is backed by a URL
/:owner/:repo/main
/:owner/:repo/feature/branch
But you can use any editor you like
with live collaboration!
Shareable IDE for Development
1. Reviewing a PR while you're working on something
2. Waiting for development servers to start
3. Quickly pair programming with someone
4. Getting feedback from a dev/designer/(Koen/Jorn)
5. Don't have your laptop on you. Work from anywhere.
6. Running two branches at the same time(?!)
Demo
Future Work
1. Live Collaboration in VSCode
2. Easy switching/merging of branches, improving git flow
3. Reviewing PRs directly in CodeSandbox
4. Collaborative Devtools
5. Online editor improvements
Long-Term
You can use it!
