Collaborative in-browser IDE

Tech description:

Most of our time is spent building two core areas of our technology -- the IDE and the container infrastructure. We created the world's [fastest and first server-rendered IDE](https://repl.it/site/blog/ide). The IDE has a small functional core -- borrowing ideas from Redux -- everything is a plugin. This architecture allows us to build an adaptable IDE where it starts very simple and grows with the user as they learn more and require more features -- this is crucial for new programmers.

As for our infrastructure, we're building a new kind of [computing platform](https://repl.it/site/blog/platform): it's Serverless in that users don't have to care about the underlying resources, but it's not Serverless in that it's stateful. This way it's interactive, and since we're focused on newcomers, it's a much more natural programming model. We're also building a filesystem abstraction that allows your working directory to travel with your container between development and production and as it goes offline and online -- a persistent and versioned working directory.
