Another real killer feature of web-based IDEs is zero setup for new engineers.

You won’t have to spend a day fiddling with your local env. Everything just works immediately.

There are commercial alternatives like GH codespaces but not as good as Cider-V.

I'd rather have a remote hosted devcontainer and a local IDE. No fiddling, settings pushed on the container (same with plugins to use etc).

The keybindings with the web ide's always are a drag to me, actually the lack of good keybindings.
