![]() Web Maker is also recommended by Chris Coyier on CodePen blog, if an offline web playground is what you need: They’re saved in your browser’s localStorage. You also have the option to save and load your creations for later editing. And if there’s just a CSS change, it doesn’t even require a refresh - it just shows up. Not just initial startup, but every change you make in the code produces an instant refresh in the preview. There’s no network involved (unless you’re using a third-party JavaScript/CSS library). Now I use it to do all my web experiments - and even to develop Web Maker itself!īeing a chrome extension, Web Maker lives completely in your browser. So I decided to make something myself, and created Web Maker. No idea how it would work like, but still. In fact, I found many people looking for the same thing: I tried looking for something that could give me what I wanted, but couldn’t find any. Of course, you can use an editor and see the results in the browser - but in this fast-paced world, that’s slow to set up! I also wanted a quick way to hack stuff while traveling or waiting at the airport, where you’re mostly offline. But I’ve always felt a slight friction in them having to work over the internet - with an inherent delay between starting them up and being able to use them. I’ve mostly used them to figure out issues I’m facing, or to discuss code snippets with colleagues. ![]() ![]() They’re all great and do the job perfectly. If you’re a front-end developer like me, you’ve probably tried one or more of the code playgrounds out there like CodePen, JSBin, JSFiddle etc.
