Q: Is this good for web designers with zero coding skills?
As a web designer, my challenge has always been CSS & JS as I have no coding background:
1. Can Interactive Shell help me create a CSS code to (example) Lazy Load an entire webpage or Lazy Load selected items on my webpage such as an image or group of texts?
2. Can it help me fix my JS embeds like to resize or align the items?
3. I assume all instructions will be given via an AI prompt?
4. If there is a problem with a code, can I just prompt the AI to "fix it"?
5. Moving forward, can I use Interactive Shell to learn (or teach) basic coding?
6. What are the storage limits for? Aren't codes just texts that have very very minimal storage usage?
A: 1. Yes, In the Interactive Shell > IDE Drive > Create a file with .html extension. It will open a codepen like Editor and there you can practice HTML/CSS. Codes will be executed on the fly! 2-5. We suggest you create a free account and try yourself. 6. Code are small but people may need input files which can be large. You can run codes with input files in the Terminal. That's the beauty of the...
A: Yes, in short but please read the fine points: Interactive Shell is not a VPS provider. It's just an outlet of a docker container made on-the-fly nothing permanent. Our clients use the terminal for testing, debugging and learning. Networking to github.com is possible but Internet access is kept limited to avoid abuses.
Q: This looks amazing, but why the sloppy use of language?
On the surface, this looks like a winner, but the obvious sloppiness makes me wonder if you're sloppy about other things.
I found "Interactie Shell" (missing a "v") on your web site, as well as in multiple places (including the video shown on AppSumo) a failure to understand how the word "code" works in English (when used to refer to computer programs written in a computer language, it's an abstract noun that cannot be pluralized).
If you're sloppy in your web site & marketing, why should we not assume you're sloppy in the creation of your product?
A: Thank you very much for your valuable feedback, we have corrected the typo in our site page at https://www.interactiveshell.com/drive. Interactive Shell a learning and development tool for the terminal enthusiasts, the rest is assured.
A: Interactive Shell IDE Drive is designed to host source codes/ text files hence max size of a single file is limited to a few MBs. Having said that you may upload your files to GitHub and then clone to the terminal for processing and compilation, etc.
Hello, I occasionally check the roadmap to see if pandas, matplotlib, numpy, etc. libraries have been added to the ide support but I don't see any mention of it. Will the roadmap be updated when this happens? How often is the roadmap updated? Is there an ETA for when those python packages will be available?

Q: Can I run an API test and have it continue running to force testing until I scale to a client level?
I would like to know if I can do an API test that runs on Ubuntu and if I can do these tests until I scale the application for customer monetization.
