A Treat for Developers

In order to make it easier and intuitive for JavaScript developers to get started, Versal had partnered with a London-based Codio to offer a Web-based IDE (Integrated Developer Environment). With this Versal gadgets can easily and quickly build even online from the scratch or with preconfigured templates. Expert developer will be allowed to use the Web IDE or they could download an SDK for building gadgets in their own suitable development environment.

Using the Web IDE is the perfect way of developing gadgets. Codio supported Web IDE is aimed at enabling the community to become as productive and creative as possible at the same time removing all the complexities related to set up and confirmation. Developers are always willing to learn more by nature and the Versal’s Open API platform will give them an opportunity to create cool experiences for teachers as well as for learners.
