I work at Bunnyshell, so happy to see it mentioned here. Happy to share some more details:

Bunnyshell creates two types of CDEs:

- local IDE, code running in the cloud. The cool thing here is you get to use a local IDE (any IDE/editor you want), no lag, the user edits a local files and the files are synced in real time to the cloud environment. All editing on local, all execution in the cloud. Supports debuggers.

- remote IDE, code running in the cloud. When configured in this way, both the IDE and the execution happen in the cloud. No code on local.

The CDE is just one side of Bunnyshell, the other is provisioning environments on demand or automatically (eg. ephemeral environments on each PR). All these envs support remote development (if enabledd).

Our team makes heavy use of CDEs internally for actually building the product.
