Sometimes you want a playground to experiment with a new language feature or framework, to learn it or to teach it to others.

Hi All, I need to write a small application to read and write to DALLAS iBUttons. What’s more, the refactor keyword is a custom marker. Sometimes you keep forgetting how a certain library function works, so just want to call it and inspect the output. Visual Studio builds an index of all comments with those special keywords and shows them in a separate window: This is a handy way of managing simple activities or just taking some small notes for the future. Sometimes, you just need some isolated space for a small prototype that may end up being a foundation for a great invention. Take the newly released “Quokka”, which provides JavaScript coders with another option for fast experimentation… and it doesn’t hurt that it’s named after the Australia’s most adorable marsupial.Īs developer Artem Govorov explains, Quokka, a free, “live scratchpad” add-in for Visual Studio Code, is aimed at coders who want to quickly try things out without leaving the comfort of their IDE: Web development is about as live as it gets and we still have yet to reach the limits of software for this stuff. The ever-increasing sophistication of coding tools coupled with more powerful hardware makes “live editing” a reality in scenarios that weren’t possible ten, or even five years ago. ![]()
