Online Coding Environments and Simulators
Hands-on practice is crucial in computer science, and our interactive tools are here to help. Dive into coding with our online environments and simulators, where you can write, test and debug code in real-time.
Code Playground: Experiment with code and see instant results.
| CodePen: A popular platform for front-end developers to showcase their HTML, CSS, and JavaScript creations. Users can edit code in a web-based interface and see instant updates in a preview pane. | Visit CodePen |
| JSFiddle: Another online community for testing and showcasing user-created HTML, CSS and JavaScript code snippets. It provides an interactive environment to quickly test code and see results. | Visit JSFiddle |
Algorithm Simulators: Visualise how different algorithms work.
| VisuAlgo: Provides visualisations of data structures and algorithms through interactive animations. It covers a wide range of topics and allows users to step through algorithms visually. | Visit VisuAlgo |
| Algorithm Visualizer: A web-based tool that visualises algorithms and data structures through animations. Users can interact with various algorithms and see how they operate step-by-step. | Visit Algorithm Visualizer |
Debugging Tools: Practice finding and fixing bugs in sample programs.
| JSBin: A collaborative web development debugging tool. It allows users to edit and debug JavaScript, HTML and CSS code directly in their browser. | Visit JSBin |
| CodeSandbox: An online code editor and sandbox environment for rapid web development. It supports React, Vue, Angular and other frameworks, with built-in debugging capabilities. | Visit CodeSandbox |
