I Got Access To Google's VS Code Killer | Project IDX First Look

it seems like google want our data.

It is Almost copy of VSCODE but I don't care because I use Intelij IDea

Exra cookie features aside, how is it different from code servers which can be self-hosted too?

You got the wrong screenshot of cider-ide in your video, it shows Emacs with the extension for Closure environment called CIDER, which has nothing to do with google's internal IDE.

So how soon before this is listed on killed by google?

so basically a vscode + the ssh extension with a cloud computer...... why did I even sign up

That need for people to call every new technology that comes out calling it the * insert old technology of the day * killer.
It is very annoying

well everyone is saying that it''s gonna be a vs-code killer....
but I really don;t think that developers ever actually are leaving vs code !
I don't see that coming

Should help me code on my iPad finally

Jesus...This guy keeps mentioning how he is an ex google employee. Every so often he rementions it 😮😂

google is using vscode server for that lol

I'd hate to put my Dev stuff on the web for several reasons, unless, it's my personal server.

Suppose if there is an engineering team that provide direct feature of deployment from code editor they can easily compete with AWS.

And replit is much better then it afterall

but google sucks.

Yeah you work at cloud, all you code belongs now to Google, feeding some Google's AI to take away our work xD

They lost me at 'web-based'.

Then it is not ur code anymore!

As soon are you mention using a cloud hosted computer, I knew was out. As others have mentioned, there are tons of of privacy issues and there is absolutely no way they won’t double dip for revenue. I can see this having a subscription while scraping your data to train their AI. Additionally, google doesn’t have the best track record of supporting their products. I hope I’m wrong, but it just doesn’t seem worth it to me.

VSCode killer :-D Keep dream bro

another "killer" ? cmon we have seen a lot of these "killers" already

Flutter is nowhere near as popular as React ?

What have you been smoking ?

Can we use this tool in tablets or even phones? If we can It can be a real game changer.

I save you some time, Google will kill it in the next 5 years.

I have never seen an IDE running smoothly on the browser. I doubt it's going to be any better

If that isn't GitHub development than what it is, same as that vs code editor with GitHub hosted server to run code?

And Google will definatly NOT reas your code 😂😂😂😂😂

Looks like Stackblitz is more interesting for Angular développement

listen to me ,listen to me, VIM is superior no matter what

And when there is no internet? What about privacy? What about sensitive projects? etc

What's the difference between IDX and the Codespace? It looks exactly like Codespace?

cool video)

It's not gonna kill VS Code lil bro

Cloud-based IDE was released around 2016 or even earlier. I used it around that time. Integration of cloud-based IDE with AI is expected.

I miss Atom :(

Cloud based IDE's are Enterprise developer's greatest nightmare: No matter how good they are/become... WE CANT USE IT BECAUSE OUR CODE WILL LEAVE OUR ENTERPRISE.

You can't put a game engine into the cloud, so no use for me at all(

Store source code on Google for them to steal and data-mine? I don't think so. VS Code wins again.

Title: vscode killer
1 minute later: Project IDX is based on vscode

A proprietary cloud-only solution from a company that has a history of axing products isn’t exactly a killer to an open-source solution like VS Code.

This means theoretically Google can steal all your code

as a flutter dev if this is free i will cry bc is just spent 2k on a macbook

Yea give google your source code so they can steal it from you. Nah big tech wouldn’t ever do that.

Meanwhile: me chilling with JetBrains and Atlassian products

they will use this to spy on more people.

clicked off when i heard "cloud-based"

No thank you ill keep using neovim.

No thanks, BUT it is super impressive

The main problem is developed by Google. Google's reputation in making products is almost the lowest in the industry. The odds of them killing a product are much higher than the odds of that product surviving, let alone that product being successful. If it wasn't acquired by Google, forget it.
