Agree! This is one of the core pains we set out to fix. Using a CDE to package everything nicely for the candidate goes a surprisingly long way for their experience.

I think there's a valid point that any IDE != a candidate's local setup. But I think there's a compromise there - we try to offer a variety of common IDE's + a few mins of prep to download extensions, etc before you're thrown in the thick of it.
