Cloud Development Environments for Education

Spend less time on course dependencies and more time teaching.

Removing Barriers for Computer Science Education

Our platform offers many benefits that remove barriers for college students to access performant environments. The teacher pre-configures environments for the courses they're teaching, and once enrolled, each student can create their cloud development environment that they access via their web browser. This is ideal for curriculum that requires a team project and every student needs to have the same software dependencies as their teammates.

Accessible

Students and educators can access the cloud development environments and projects from a chrome-based web browser, supporting remote learning and hybrid models.

Flexible

We work with you to create a development environment for your students that meets the needs of the course. We can leverage our existing infrastructure or host on yours.

Scalable

Once enrolled in a course on the platform, students can create and access their development environments. There is no limit to the number of students a course can support.

Customizable

You can start with one of our pre-built supported languages, or we can partner with you to create a custom image that your students will use for your courses.

Cross-Platform

The platform supports many platforms to include Windows, Mac, and Linux. Students only need to have access to the internet and a web browser to access their development environment. These environments are the same for each student in a course.

Teacher accounts are always free. Our team works with university bookstores for bulk purchases and participates in Textbook Affordability and Access Programs. Students are also able to purchase credits for their cloud development environments directly in the application or use our free open-source images locally.
