Free Browser-Based C++ Editor – Quick Prototyping Tool

[aminkheddache-dotcom]

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a free tool I've been working on called Pterocos (https://pterocos.eu.org/) that might be of interest to the Eclipse CDT community.

What it offers:

Runs entirely in the browser via WebAssembly – no installation or account required

Powered by the Monaco Editor (same engine as VS Code)

Compiles and runs C++ code client-side

Built-in AI assistant for debugging and code generation

Why it might be useful:

Quickly test snippets and prototype algorithms without setting up a full development environment

Great for experimenting with C++ features or testing ideas before adding them to larger projects

Useful for code reviews or discussing implementation approaches

It's completely open-source and free to use. I'd appreciate any feedback or feature suggestions from the community.

Thanks!
