Frequently asked questions
What is a cloud dev environment?
A cloud dev environment (CDE) is a remote development workspace that runs your code in the cloud instead of on your local machine. It includes everything needed to develop: source code, dependencies, dev server, and tools. CDEs eliminate "works on my machine" issues and make onboarding instant.
Why would I switch from local development?
Local development requires every team member to set up their own environment — installing dependencies, configuring databases, managing env vars. Cloud dev environments make this instant: one command, and your app is running. This is especially powerful for non-engineers who want to use AI tools to ship code.
Are these comparisons biased?
We try to be honest. Every comparison page includes a "When to choose them" section that acknowledges competitor strengths. We believe the best way to build trust is to help you find the right tool for your team — even if that's not us.
