    Tuple

    Tuple

    Tuple

    The best remote pair programming app on macOS. Because we programmers deserve better than a generic screen sharing tool. Once upon a time, there was an amazing pairing app called Screenhero. Sadly, they decided to sell to Slack, who tried to integrate them, failed, and eventually shut them down. In the following years, we made do with generic screensharing tools. It's not terrible pairing over Zoom, but it was clearly built for business types. They even call it a “meeting�? in their UI. And Slack Calls is fine, but not having remote control is a deal-breaker. Have you ever tried to dictate some code for your pair to write? Or narrated a set of Vim commands? Not fun.

    motepair

    motepair

    Atom

    Remote pair programming tool for Atom. Lag free! We’ve done a basic integration with Share.js to allow concurrent editing via OT and bind some Atom events to a websocket, like opening/closing/saving files. Use the Atom package manager, which can be found in the Settings view or run apm install motepair from the command line. Open the project to start collaborating via the Motepair, connect command (you can trigger this command via Cmd+Shift+P). Please make sure that peers to open the same project directory. This is a very important step as we rely on the relative project path to identify the correct file. Deploy your own server easily on Heroku. The connection right now it is not encrypted if you have problems with that, please do not use it. That is part of the backlog. Be aware that this package is still in development, so it can be unstable, we are working hard to make the Remote Pair programming a better experience to all.

    Interview Sandbox

    Share code with interviewers, coworkers, and classmates in realtime. Anywhere, anytime and with anyone. A simple real time code sharing app built with Firebase Realtime Database, Code Mirror as Editor, WebRTC video chat, and Witeboard. Write code, video chat, and draw in realtime with others. An application that was inspired by the fact that interviews are meant to interactive, not only in the face to face and speaking sense, but also in that they're meant to provide you a chance to show your thinking process. I sought out to build an application that lets interviewers outline their code, as well as leverage a whiteboard to show their solutions to the problem at hand. React, Firebase (realtime database), CodeMirror for the text editor, WebRTC & sockets for video chat, and Witeboard integration. There are a couple bugs and some features still being built. If you're using the app and need to reference your code/drawings later, just save the link!

    PlatformIO

    PlatformIO

    Professional collaborative platform for embedded development. PlatformIO is a next-generation, collaborative platform for embedded development that enables customers to save resources and time by vastly reducing the expenses and labor associated with creating and maintaining product software. We believe the embedded systems industry desperately needs reinvention. Not only are the IDEs and tools built with technology from the 1990s, but they involve many complex requirements and platform-dependent configurations that turn away talented developers from becoming embedded engineers. The most loved IDE solution for Microsoft Visual Studio Code. A user-friendly and extensible integrated development environment with a set of professional development instruments, providing modern and powerful features to speed up yet simplify the creation and delivery of embedded products. PlatformIO is written in pure Python and doesn't depend on any additional libraries/tools from an operation system.

    Collabedit

    Collabedit

    Collabedit

    Collabedit is a web based code editor that makes it easy to collaborate in real-time. When you create a document, you have the option of selecting syntax highlighting for different programming languages. These stats are a rough estimate of programming language popularity among collabedit users. Email and instant messaging do not work well for sharing code. They don't preserve whitespace, the fonts aren't monospaced, the spell check gets in the way, etc. Paste bins are better, but they are too static if you're looking for collaboration. Also they don't have a good editor, they're only good for copy and paste. Collabedit has what you need - a good editor, syntax highlighting, real-time collaboration, chat and versioning. Teaching demands a fine balance between letting your students do, and showing them how. Collabedit allows student and teacher to share a common workspace without the distractions that other tools impose.

    Botany

    Botany

    Botany

    Botany is Engineering TeamOps. Using data and real-time nudges, Botany helps engineering teams improve processes, develop better habits, and foster a more informed and collaborative team. We believe in continuous improvement and growth over the usual goal-setting processes. We constantly provide the insights and opportunities you need in order to become a better engineer not just achieve one-and-done goals. We love data, but we know that without the right context or the right intentions data can tell any story. So, we don't focus on building retroactive reports that nobody can trust or act on. Botany uses signals from data along with layers of expert opinion to find and drive opportunities for real action and engagement. Tyrannical micro-management is the absolute last thing a team needs for effective growth. This is why we'll never be a reporting or spying tool and we'll never be a tool to stack-rank teammates. Engineering is a team sport.

    Teletype for Atom
    Teletype for Atom lets developers share their workspace with team members and collaborate on code in real time. Working on code together in real time is valuable for knowledge sharing and producing quality software. The Teletype package for Atom aspires to make it as easy for developers to code together as it is for them to code alone. Teletype introduces the concept of real-time "portals" for sharing workspaces. When a host opens a portal, their active tab becomes a shared workspace. There, invited collaborators can join in and make edits in real time. As the host moves between files, collaborators follow along with the active tab automatically. There's no centralized server to spy on your keystrokes, and Teletype uses WebRTC to encrypt all communication between collaborators. What happens in the portal stays in the portal.
