I've been using c9 everytime I wanted to quickly prototype stuff (and not setup the toolchain) and destroy workspaces when I'm done. I love this integration with AWS.

Now I can just get a nice Chromebook and not necessarily spend 1000s on a Macbook (not saying AWS Cloud9 is there yet as an editor to compare against VS Code/Sublime etc.) but it's definitely awesome and I hope one day it'll get there.

Learn Vim and use it in tmux on a VM or even in a Docker container you blow away when you're done. You can use a Raspberry Pi then :P
I've tried to learn vim multiple times (mainly so i could have a cheap vm + mosh to use when i'm around). But I've yet to get used to vim coming from a sublime/vscode/intellij background. (I can use vim to do the mundane stuff, but developing stuff solely on vim appears slightly more difficult)
