#1. CLOUD9 IDE

This worksheet will teach you about cloud9 - an online integrated development environment - a place to write your code. The first thing to do is sign up at c9.io. If you already have github, you can sign in with that.

#2. New Workspace

Cloud9 workspaces are actually virtual machines running ubuntu. basicaly, a pretend computer. This means you can do some pretty unique and fancy stuff.

Click the create new workspace button, and give your workspace a name and a

description -

#3. Add a file

Now, we are able to create our basic html page. If you have already done the Web Development worksheet, then you could download your work from that and then do file-upload local files to upload it. If not, then you can do file-new file and put in the following:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
 Test Page

Live preview

Now, click the Preview button on the top bar (next to run). Select "live preview file", and then you will see your html file rendered on the right, as it would look in a browser. Now, your can add some things to your previous html file. Don't close the preview! I'm going to add a link to project tigr. I will put it between the </p> and the </body>.

<a href="https://www.project-tigr.co.uk">Go to tigr</a>

#5. Testing our Webpage

Click the run button next to preview, and you will see a new tab appear saying "run". Look for the line which says

"Starting Apache httpd, serving **https://________________________" **

Mine will be slightly different to yours. Copy and paste the bit in bold, and paste it into a new tab in your browser. Voila! You can see your webpage, and your links work properly. If you have a server error, check if there is a dot at the end of the url bar - eg "test.html**.**"

#6. Beyond...

We have just scratched the surface of what cloud9 can do. Maybe you want to test your website in different browsers without leaving your workspace. Maybe you want to try a language you've never tried before. Or perhaps you want to use an interpreter for your language, like the python console. I will show you how to do this.

#7. Installing programs.

In the terminal, type lua. It should spit out "command not found". Now do sudo apt-get install lua5.2. It will say lots and eventually let you type again. Lua has now been installed. If you type lua again, it will bring you into a lua prompt. Press ctrl+C to exit.
