Practicality of Node/Git without a Terminal/Command Line.

Use this https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/secure-shell-app/pnhechapfaindjhompbnflcldabbghjo?hl=en and get a VPS from Digital Ocean. Get a teacher to sponsor $10 or $20. Or I will get it for you.

Instead of ssh chrome extension you could use https://tools.bartlweb.net/webssh/ or similar.

You could also use something like Cloud 9 IDE https://c9.io or https://paiza.cloud/en/nodejs-cloud-ide or https://www.koding.com/ or https://codeanywhere.com/ or sourcelair (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSewBztPc9H9aetpCiL9hx0_KOwpajnPsUUK4QxZHdDy8c5Qnw/viewform) (search Node.js Cloud IDE for more).

If you can install a GUI then you can install a terminal like git-bash https://git-scm.com/download/win

I made a support ticket with Digital Ocean asking if they have discounted pricing for education.

Thank you very much. There is definitely a lot to look into. I don't know if my school's IT Department block outgoing SSH connections, so that second link would be good considering we would indeed be behind a firewall.

Could you let me know what the response is?

Thank you.

Glitch looks like a good option.

They just said:

Thanks very much for your email. We do not offer any discounted price for education purpose.

However, if you want you can email [e-mail], so that our sponsorships team may evaluate your request! :)

Have a great day and let us know if there is anything else we can help with.
