Our aim is to provide RDEs that are fully equivalent to local development environments. The central aspect here is the possibility to use any local editor, local or web IDE and to enable integration via several ways: via a mounted file share with sources for local editors / IDEs or via ssh for web / remote IDEs. Build of not yet committed intermediate states, reuse of already existing local build tools (e.g. code not minimised) and comfortable inspection of logs complete the picture. The particular strength lies in the comprehensive automation and integration functionality available in the RDEs.
