Use case
Developers need to write, test, deploy, and collaborate on code in one environment, especially for rapid prototyping and full-stack application development.
Developers typically use local IDEs (e.g., VS Code) combined with command-line tools and cloud services for development and deployment.
Traditional development requires configuring local environments, managing dependencies, and handling deployment processes, which is time-consuming and error-prone.
