There are dozens of browser-based IDE<\/abbr>s<\/strong> but most of them focus on frontend languages<\/strong>: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.<\/p>\n

Glot.io<\/a><\/strong> is a new contender, focusing on dozens of programming languages that usually require runtime software<\/strong>. These languages go far beyond the web, including C#, Java, Swift, Haskell and a whole lot more.<\/p>\n

Glot is a coder\u2019s web-based paradise and it works like an open-source playground with executable code<\/strong>. Granted, there are some limitations on what you can run, especially with GUI programs and 3rd<\/sup> party libraries. But, you can save pretty much anything<\/strong> in this site and share it with the whole world. For free!<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for sample snippets<\/strong> you can browse the Glot snippets page with whatever language you prefer. For instance, if you\u2019re building an iOS app you can search snippets by Swift code<\/a> to see what\u2019s out there.<\/p>\n

Most snippets are pretty old and they\u2019re all very simple. However, Glot isn\u2019t just a free code library. You can also use it to test new ideas<\/a><\/strong> by writing code and testing it on the fly without a compiler. No other web app offers this kind of functionality with so many languages for free.<\/p>\n

\"Glot.io<\/a><\/figure>\n

So, who would get the most value from using Glot?<\/p>\n

Newer coders might find some gems in the snippet archives but, truthfully, there aren\u2019t many archives to sift through. I think Glot is most useful to practicing coders<\/strong> who want an online environment for testing their ideas.<\/p>\n

It can be tough when you\u2019re starting to learn Python or C# or any detailed programming language. These online code environments let you practice from any computer with Internet access, no software required<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The site\u2019s code and many tools are also freely available on GitHub. You can find them all listed in this index repo<\/a> linking to all the Glot.io open-source projects<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Glot.io is a really cool web app and quite valuable to newer developers. If you\u2019re looking for a cheap way to hone your programming skills Glot offers everything you need to get started.<\/p>\n
