Wonderful tool for webdevelopment

I have ben using playcoee for about a year now primarly to do some quick coding of javascript code to do some debugging as it takes too much time to create a new project locally to do testing, likewise have been doing motion effects using css within this tool to save time opening vs code and creating new file, this tools has been a wonderful asset and hope it gets better close to codesandbox.io, just hoping there would be a way to use my local core to upload and use npm install to do some check. Overall I would definitely recommend this tool for developers and the ones who want to learn development!

Unworkable

Lacks many features.
UX is not the best when working with files. Sucks up too much time.
Upload max file size is 1000.... NOT ENOUGH when working with templates.
Responsiveness is poor or non-existent.
Help files need more meat and examples.
Courses are free online anyway, nothing original.
I'm happy to change my review. But what ticked me off was the max file upload limit. I'm better off using VSCode and running a site on a server instead of using this.

A Gem totally worth it

This is a hidden gem on Appsumo. The website and coding environment is well thought through. The learning section is accessible and takes me into the world of coding. Thanks!

Solid

I am not a developer but I can write simple codes. And here is my story.

1. I played with the HTML/JS codes I have imagined. Playcode shows what it looks like and allows me to trigger external webhooks/APIs.

2. I shared it with my class to discuss possibilities. Others could update, duplicate, tweak files or codes to expand the scope without me involved.

3. We felt the implementation looked presentable. We assigned a CNAME to the project space and it was immediately available as a demo site.

It worked nicely just like sharing/publishing a web site from my local drive. Besides choosing the UI options, I did not need to play with any settings to make it work. This has saved so much time for us to focus on the business than to manage the co-development environment.

Does what it's supposed to do and author is commited for the long run.

Purchased this a while ago.
I'm willing to give this 10 tacos, why?

1)
The service does what it's supposed to do.
And it's very good deal compared to other similar services.

2)
The author is in it for the long run, he's not offering this and then abandoning the project. (See discord).

3)
The author is responsive (and willing to implement) when it comes to feedback or issues (See discord).

Go ahead and go for this deal, you won't be sorry. It's a solid investment!
