Really well done and feature-rich. Every web developer has thought about a product like this at some point. However, I don't understand who you're targeting: It's an incredibly feature-rich product, but no clear value proposition. Are you targeting backend developers that can't write HTML/CSS? Are you targeting HTML/CSS-devs that need a better IDE? Are you targeting website optimizers? Your product seems like a combination of IDE, web-based WYSIYWIG (à la Weebly or Unbounce), SEO/Optimization (Optimizely or VWO), and Chrome Developer Tools. The integration is great from a technical perspective, but I don't see why I as a Web Dev should switch my entire tool chain to your service. The USP is kind of missing. (I'm also from Germany, and the rendering is kind of slow, as hxseven has mentioned. Not sure if due to connection or client-side JS.) |

So yeah, that's how the idea evolved and I started creating a visual editing tool that not only helps developers with visual development but also provides a more extensive browser based coding IDE.
Browser plays an integral role in most of the web development cycle and so if we can combine the development and testing process and create a more streamlined Test Driven Development flow, it save a huge amount of time.. especially when it comes to responsive web development..
The way I envision it is to create a full stack development IDE inside the browser itself; so the only developer tool anyone would need is just a browser.. HTML/CSS/Javascript/Database+Server-Side Programming.
So yeah, to come back to the question...I am targeting mostly developers (majorly freelancers) right now.. who have a lot of work load and can actually benefit by saving a lot of time by using StackHive.. After that I think there is a great opportunity to bring on Designers onboard as well and create the full web development ecosystem inside the browser :)
(For the slow rendering, I made a temporary fix for now.. sorry about that.. should be able to get it in the groove in a few hours!)
