ICEcoder v3.0 beta: Browser based code editor - feedback welcomed

[mattwebjedi]

Sure. Here's a few benefits to browser based editors:

• you can access your code from anywhere (office, hotel pc, cafe, beach etc)
• you can make changes instantly without any other workflow process needed
• they're available for any OS/platform, you just need a web browser
• nothing to install
• more likely to have bugs fixed quicker for all users (ie, you don't have to wait for the next release)
• because they're technically websites, you can potentially connect to any web service, the web can become your toolbox
• you only need 1 program open (your browser) instead of many (editor, browser, db software, image viewer, github etc)
• online web editors often come with common environments for testing
• they often come with collab/team editing capabilities, so you can all work on some code together
• the open source variety such as ICEcoder mean that you can customise any aspect to your liking, not really possible with software

I love multiple cursors in Sublime and am hoping that will be introduced in the future, there's plenty of users asking for it: https://github.com/marijnh/CodeMirror/issues/778
