What ShareCode is
ShareCode is a browser-based collaborative code editor for writing, sharing, and debugging code together in real time. Multiple people can edit the same code space at once, with edits synchronized through Yjs. The web editor supports more than 50 programming languages with syntax highlighting, including JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, C, C++, C#, Go, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Swift, Kotlin, HTML, CSS, SQL, Bash, Dart, Scala, and R. Workspaces include multiple tabs, live cursors, automatic indentation, and code downloads. Each code space has a shareable URL and QR code, and recipients can join through a browser without an account. The Free plan costs nothing, billed free forever, and includes unlimited code spaces, unlimited users per space, and no usage caps; an account is optional and no credit card is needed. Anyone with a space link can view and edit it, while signed-in users can lock it so only its owner can edit. The company says connections use TLS and code space data is stored in Firebase Firestore with server-side security rules. ShareCode describes use for interviews, pair programming, teaching, debugging, code reviews, and hackathons, but not as a replacement for a local IDE, source-control system, or production deployment platform.
