Codiad

If you want a development environment that is simple and fast, Codiad is the answer you need. It was designed specifically for speed and minimalism without sacrificing functionality. As a result, Codiad is able to function at a much better rate than bulkier editors that must be installed to the desktop, and it does so without any of the associated overhead. If you want to stay on the cutting edge of the platform, you can follow the developer's Facebook and Twitter accounts for on-the-spot updates. The framework is regularly maintained and upgraded with new functions and abilities, which is quite impressive considering the software is free. Of course, the developers accept donations, but they never ask for a dime. The platform offers support for more than 40 different languages, and it comes with a dedicated library of plugins to make development even easier. The system employs a notification and error-check system to ensure everything is working properly, and it can support multiple users working on the same project. You can screen-split the editor to make it easier to visualize everything at once, and the advanced search tools help keep everything within reach. It includes a smart auto-complete feature that speeds up the development process, and you can choose from a range of more than 20 color themes for the various syntaxes. If you would like to install the software on your own server, you can do so. The source code can be completely customized to your specifications since the software is open-source, and you can download backups in an instant. With support for the i18n language, developers couldn't ask for much more. Thanks to the team of developers and outside collaborators, the available features of Codiad will only keep increasing. When you start using Codiad, you'll notice the interface is split into three main panels. The active files are shown in the file manager on the left, system controls are found on the right, and the editors are found in the center. If you want to maximize the visual space of the center development panel, you can collapse the left and right panels for more screen room. Installing Codiad on your own server is quite simple. It takes little resources, and it requires PHP 5+ and Apache. You will also have to give the software standard read/write access to a number of system directories for proper utility. You won't have to install a database, which is where most similar systems hold their weight. Almost any modern web browser can support Codiad, including Internet Explorer 9 or newer, Google Chrome, and Firefox.
