abstract— Existing cloud IDEs offer remote development capabilities but require users to contend with expensive setup, licensing charges and code storage insecurity. Cloud IDE resolves these issues by allowing an employee to connect to powerful employer computers over the internet through a web browser without the issues of high setup complexity, licensing fees, or the security ramifications of storing code.
