Survey Programmer Market Research Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The best code editor you will find." July 16, 2021 4.0 I have been using this tool to develop my websites and it stands out to the expectations. It also have many templates, which we can apply. The auto code complete helps a lot in coding and we don't have to write the entire basic codes again and again. The debugging feature is very helpful and the live preview helps too. Pros It is an online tool and everything is stored on the cloud. We can code in any programming language and the interface is very smooth. We can pull all our repositories directly from GitHub and view it in codesandbox which is the best feature this editor has. Cons As the tool is an online tool, it is a bit slow when compared to other tools around. The free versions have very less features and the premium version should be less expensive. Apart from this I don't find any dislikes for this tool. Switched from [Visual Studio Code](https://www.capterra.com/p/186634/Visual-Studio-Code/) The tool is very robust and heavy-weight and makes the system hang and all other processes slow. It require very big space in the disk. Review Source AB Arman B.

This is place where you want to code. Pros All the pre built templates and setup is the most important it saves a lot of my time and effort Cons The clouds web edition, because for a beginner it will be pretty hard to learn all the features and functionality.

Pros I like the best about code sandbox that without installing anything in our system we can do coding and practice as it provides a boiler plate .For taking interviews or giving an interview this is a helpful platform which saves time by writing solution directly.Also it provides multiple technologies boiler plate option like reactjs,vuwjs,angularjs,Javascript,etc. Cons Sometimes we need to refresh the page as the page will not load because of timeout issue.Otherwise there is no issues in using codesand box.It provides all the best features which a programmer want to code.

It is also used in interviewing process. Where the candidate can live code and we can see the output quickly wihtout any setup. Also, it provides a sharable link to the code that can be shared with the interviewer. Pros It is amazing tool for quick coding of small UI code snippets and see the output quickly. Most of the time we go for free plan. Free plan provides lot of features, you can sync your github repository with codesandbox and all the changes you make in github will be synced in sandbox. Codesanbox provides a lot of languages to code in and provides initial setup so that we can start with minimal configuration Cons The pricing plan for Codesanbox is high for Indian users. That can be improved. Also, code sandbox supports only UI languages for now. They should add support to run backend languages and framework like Java, spring boot too.

March 30, 2021 5.0 I highly recommend it to all the people, whether you're new or experienced or trying to learn something new, Codesandbox is the place to do it. Pros The thing that i like most about Codesandbox is that i can use multiple from the get go, and we don't have to write any bolierplate stuff which makes things a lot easier. Also best for when you want to write a new function, feature or just try out a piece of code. Also best while taking interviews, to write short codes. Cons None that i have encountered so far, i find it best easy and comfortable to use, with multiple technologies built in, saves a lot of time.
