What ShareCodeLive is
ShareCodeLive is a web-based collaborative code editor for pair programming, interviews, teaching, code reviews, and remote work. In a public workspace, participants can edit shared code and tabs together in real time, with presence updates when people join or leave. Team chat and a shared Excalidraw whiteboard are built in; the whiteboard synchronizes live and supports freehand drawing, shapes, text, and diagrams. Its compiler runs the active tab, with NodeJS 18, C++, and Python 3.10 listed as run targets. An AI assistant explains code, suggests improvements, and writes code, while users review suggestions before applying them. Saved workspaces provide owner, editable, and read-only access, and owners can change permissions or revoke collaborator access. Public workspace links allow anyone to join; room data stays in live room memory and is cleaned up after a short idle window. Workspaces can be exported as ZIP files. The free plan costs nothing, and ad-hoc sessions need no signup. Code executions are typically limited to 10 seconds, memory is capped, sandbox network access is restricted, and filesystem access is confined to a temporary isolated directory. Google login is available when configured.
