Cloud computing is said to be the next big thing. We have witnessed the creation of great applications like Office tools, web operating systems and many many more. We still see Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft trying to gain more and more of the user’s share. At the time you read this article, each and everyone of the programs you can find and use on your operating system, it’s online alternative is also there to rival it.
Things could not be different for development and designing tools. We tried to find some of the tomorrow tools and we can say that they really do the job.
Flash Creation with Flash Minibuilder
This project, currently named ActionScript MiniBuilder, features code assist (code completion) for ActionScript 3 and compilation of one-file AS3 SWF. It runs in your browser, you only need Flash Player 10 and Java. The code assist part is written in pure ActionScript. The compiler runs in a Java applet.
Image Editing with SplashUp
Splashup, formerly Fauxto, is a powerful editing tool and photo manager. With the features professionals use and novices want, it’s easy to use, works in real-time and allows you to edit many images at once. Splashup runs in all browsers, integrates seamlessly with top photo-sharing sites, and even has its own file format so you can save your work in progress.
PHP Developing with PHPAnywhere
PHPAnywhere is an online PHP IDE that will be very familiar to Zend Studio users. It supports adding FTP servers and encodings.It includes a real-time syntax code editor with support for all web formats and you can even switch themes and set your favorite colors.
PHP, C#, .NET, HTML, Javascript with CodeRun
CodeRun is a browser-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE), built on top of the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). It allows programmers to easily develop, test, deploy and publish code online, without requiring powerful hardware or complex software. You can create Silverlight applications, Facebook and Amazon apps, and Google gadgets as well.
Javascript and HTML with UIzard
An excellent IDE for online HTML and Javascript creation. UIzard is a state of the art application that utilize some of the best libraries around:
Users of Visual Studio will find UIzard very familiar.
Java Developing with Wavemaker
WaveMaker (formerly known as ActiveGrid) is an open source software development platform that automates much of the process for creating Java web applications. WaveMaker is available as a free open source software download or as a hosted cloud development environment (aka Platform as a Service) running on Amazon EC2.
WaveMaker allows web developers to create Ajax applications. The WaveMaker framework itself integrates Spring, ACEGI, Dojo 1.0, authentication, LDAP, ActiveDirectory and POJOs and their products include Visual Ajax Studio 4.0 for RIAs development and WaveMaker Rapid Deployment Server for Java application.
Applications generated by WaveMaker community edition are licensed under the Apache license. A commercial license is also available with additional enterprise security capabilities.
WaveMaker applications are created using the WaveMaker studio, a WYSIWYG development studio that runs in a browser and enables drag and drop development of web applications following a Model-view-controller architecture. WaveMaker supports rapid application development (RAD) for the web, similar to what products like MS Access, PowerBuilder and Lotus Notes provided for client server computing.
WaveMaker applications run in a standard Java server based on Apache Tomcat, the Dojo Toolkit, Spring and Hibernate. Currently, it is supported on Microsoft Windows, Linux and Macintosh.
Python Developing with Py I/O
An online Python interpreter. You can use if you were using the python console, or the whole operation, you can write code, and then view the results as a whole run!

I’m surprised Mozilla’s Bespin (https://bespin.mozilla.com/) wasn’t mentioned. It hasn’t reached version 1 yet but it has potential to be a pretty good collabrative web-based IDE
Wow! I apologize for that. Bespin looks pretty cool and if we judge from Mozilla’s projects, it will surely become a big player in the near future. Anyone that would like to write a review and post it here?
thanks for mentioning minibuilder
one detail: looks like my little toy is the only one that has real code assist for your own code (parses your declarations/classes as you type), not only for the included libraries
A nice list. As things move online security becomes a concern, especially with code.
The wave maker looks quite interesting.
Also, for Java, there the Java Wiki Integrated Development Environment or JavaWIDE for short. See http://sandbox.javawide.org for a quick demo. Like MiniBuilder, this is one of the few online IDEs with code completion. JavaWIDE also supports instant automatic concurrent editing.
