This seems to be a trendy approach. Intellij Fleet (https://www.jetbrains.com/fleet/) Replit (https://replit.com/) more... (ssh + vim) ;)

They are all a bit different of course. I do worry the MS + GitHub hegemony doesn't have our best interest in mind though.

Somewhat related, I actually had a great use for Replit recently. Some technically inexperienced people (mostly running Windows) would benefit from access to a python command line tool, but the only commonality we had was a forum thread where we met. So i cloned the GitHub repo from the author of the tool and gave a very short set of instructions and a link to the Replit project. Nobody had any questions about installing because none of it ran on their computer. It was just a simple python script but worked perfectly in the online IDE. I didn't have to help anyone with anything, it just worked.
