Using Codenvy

At first I don't know what is codenvy, I think it was something like a place to save code and make it running online and it must have a complex and non-free registration. I see codenvy from my friend, it was happened when my lecturer gave me an assignment to presenting how to develop an apps on cloud.

So after see the name, I search for it and visit https://codenvy.com/. I was right, it need registration to use it. But it's not complicating, I just press Google button and logging in to my Google account. When it's all done, I was brought to project page. So I create a new one.

I used php language to do coding. It's just a simple application, to calculate 2d area. Next step, codenvy gives me workspace window. I begin create php files here.

Once finished wrote the code, I try to run it with Apache runner. Console appeared and I receive link to see my work. I clicked it.

Well, my apps running like I want to. I think codenvy is so useful and easy to use. It bring advantage to anyone who have high mobile activity. They can access codenvy anywhere anytime without worrying PC specifications and other needs, just internet connection needed. Codenvy also easy to access from standard internet speed, but to have a best experience, fast internet connection needed. Only thing is if only codenvy has internal database server so I no need to connect codenvy with external codenvy server. Only small space for it, because what's in codenvy is testing. It's a good cloud-platform IDE to begin cloud era.
