Cloudev

The ultimate solution to code collaboration

Comment

Inspiration

Coding in a group project has always been a hassle, with the constant sharing and re-uploading. But with Cloudev, you can collaborate real-time on code, without any re-uploading and sharing.

What it does

Cloudev is an easy-to-use, real-time, collaborative editor. You can see changes made by other people and they update automatically. Project sharing is made easy, just copy-paste the recipient's ID into the text box, and you are good to go!

How we built it

We used HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build the application using Electron. To store our data, we used Firebase. Firebase has a rich set of APIs that we used to store all the data.

Challenges we ran into

We ran into many challenges while making Cloudev. The most important problem was making a collaborative real-time editor. This topic has a lot of technical challenges, due to different people having different internet speeds. We talked with a mentor for a little bit, discussed within our team, worked really hard, and eventually overcame this issue.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of everything- from the login page to the file editing, it's all made with love!

What's next for Cloudev

This is just the beginning. Planned future Cloudev features include:

  • A console
  • More language support
  • Github/Google integration
  • Bug patches
  • Running code in the IDE
  • Revision History
  • Live Previews for HTML
  • And more!
