github.dev web-based editor

GitHub.dev web-based editor

Swap github.com for github.dev in any repository URL and a browser-based VS Code opens on that repo — search files, edit and commit, without cloning anything.

Did you know you can open any GitHub repo within the browser as if you were in an IDE, in one click?

Just change the URL from github.com to github.dev and a web-based editor will open.

bash
# from
https://github.com/beyond-the-cloud-dev/soql-lib
# to
https://github.dev/beyond-the-cloud-dev/soql-lib

What you get

Open and search through the files, as well as commit your changes.

Features from Visual Studio Code, like syntax highlighting.

A subset of web-optimized VS Code extensions.

Please note that this is very lightweight and something different than GitHub Codespaces or Salesforce Code Builder. Check the documentation and limitations before relying on it.
