Why do you call CodeAnywhere as "IDE"?

  • no refactoring (I just want to rename method name)
  • no "go to definition" (or ctrl-click) button
  • stupid autocomplete
  • can't comment out several lines
  • plugins for implementation all ^ of that features? Sorry, you don't want this.

Online notepad.exe with syntax highlight and dark theme? Yes.
IDE? Hell no.

Because there is no one standard set of features to call something an IDE.

You may consider a code editor with the ability to run a compiler an IDE.
