<![CDATA[Is there a collaborative coding app of any kind available?]]>Most of our development team works with regular coding tools like vscode and git; however, some of us would like to work in a "live" environment with a collaborative coding editor like Cloud9 or Firepad.

Does anyone use any of the current Cloudron apps in this way? Any suggestions to try?

For example, does Gitea or Gogs enable a cloud-based edit & deploy cycle? Would EtherPad be suitable here (although, it seems unable to choose which files to collaborate on)?

Thanks!

I've used it with colleges half way around the globe and it worked pretty stable.

We should probably close that thread and app request too.

Alternatives?

Please upvote and/or sponsor the packaging of Gitpod.

For now the best we have is Etherpad, CryptPad, HedgeDoc (HackMD/CodiMD), and NextCloud, which are much more writing focused, not coding.

Also vscode supports live share of the editor, this is the fastest and simplest way to achieve that asap.
