Show HN: I made a web based Node.js and JavaScript playground to make web apps

[rezguirahim]

Hello Hackers,

My name is Rahim, I'm an indie hacker passionate about building useful tools for the community. Today, I'm excited to share one of my projects, CodeJS.me, a web-based code editor designed to make your coding experience effortless and collaborative.

Part of the app can be used without signup. The app has a very generous free tier, for those of you who decide to sign up, but here is a promocode that will give you premium forever and for free, "levelup".

It basically allows you to do two things:

1. Build static web pages using html, css and JavaScript in a web based editor. (with integrated JSHint, an AI assistant called PalJS, code beautifier, instant preview, responsive previews and more...). You can try out the front end editor without signup.

2. Start a Nodejs server in seconds and edit your app in the web based editor. (very basic nodejs server that is deployed the moment you create it, you can visit your app and share it with others to use). You'll need to sign up if you want to spi up a nodejs server.

Part of the app can be used without signup. The app has a very generous free tier, for those of you who decide to sign up, but here is a promocode that will give you premium forever and for free, "levelup".

To use the promocode: 1. signup 2. go to dashboard 3. Click on the Arrow Up icon 4. Enter "levelup" as the promocode

This is an old project of mine and lately I've been thinking about making changes to it and improve the app.

I've never done any marketing and have been using CodeJS mainly as part of my portfolio (When looking for jobs or clients) so I don't have many users to begin with I am here looking for feedback and suggestions on how to improve the app before I start working on it again.

I would love to hear from you guys. Here is the link to the app https://codejs.me

Looks interesting. How does this compare to the competitors?

It's really easy to use but limited to nodejs and Javascript. It comes with an ai assistant, true autocomplete (like you would on vscode or sublime text), and many many features. Compared to Glitch the user experience and code editor are much better. I could go on and on about how it is different, but I guess you could give it a try and see for yourself what are the differences to you, depending on the way you use the tools from competitors.
