Online IDEs can be used without downloads or installation, instead operating fully within modern web browsers such as [[Firefox]], [[Google Chrome]] or [[Microsoft Edge]]. Online IDEs can enable software development on low-powered devices that are normally unsuitable. An online IDE does not usually contain all of the same features as a traditional desktop IDE, only basic IDE features such as a [[source-code editor]] with [[syntax highlighting]]. Integrated [[version control]] and [[read–eval–print loop|Read–Eval–Print Loop]] (REPL) may also be included.
