About Codevre
Virtual Runtime Engine for Creative Coders
The missing piece in browser-based development - a full IDE that runs like a sandbox, designed specifically for creative coding, education, and rapid prototyping.
Why Codevre Exists
After years of searching for the perfect creative coding environment, I realized it didn't exist. Traditional sandboxes are too limited - a few files, restrictive environments, and you can't code like you would in a real IDE. Many Browser IDEs try to replicate desktop development but end up slow, overengineered, and expensive.
Codevre bridges this gap. It's a full IDE that runs like a sandbox - giving you the power and flexibility you need without the bloat you don't. No server calls for running code, no unnecessary complexity, just pure browser-based development done right.
About the Creator
Tezumie
Creative Coder
As a self-taught developer, I found local development intimidating and fragmented. Most browser-based tools felt either too limited or locked behind steep paywalls—and none truly supported the creative coding mindset. That frustration sparked the creation of Codevre. I'm passionate about using code as a medium for art, experimentation, and self-expression. Codevre is my way of lowering the barrier to entry—an accessible, browser-first playground designed to be fast, intuitive, and fun. It’s shaped by the kind of tool I needed early on, and still to need today: something that gets out of the way and lets you focus on creating.

Tool Builders & Framework Authors
Quickly prototype, test, and showcase your libraries or tools in a live environment. Perfect for interactive demos, and feedback loops.
Design Philosophy
Everything You Need
Full IDE features: syntax highlighting, auto-completion, debugging, terminal, project management, and more.
Nothing You Don't
No server complexity, no language barriers, no bloated features. Focus on what matters: your code.
Speed First
Built for performance. Code runs instantly in the browser - no server round trips, no waiting.
Always Free
Core features remain free forever. Building great software shouldn't be locked behind paywalls.
Designed for Flow
Every detail—from layout to shortcuts—is built to keep you in the zone. Less friction, more focus, and a faster path from idea to execution.
Community-Driven
Codevre evolves with its users. Feedback, ideas, and contributions from the community directly influence its direction and priorities.
When NOT to Use Codevre
Codevre is designed for client-side development. If you need server-side languages (Python, PHP, Java, etc.) or complex backend services, any browser IDE will have limitations. For serious backend work, local development is still king.
This focused approach is intentional - by staying in our lane, we can deliver an exceptional experience for what we do best: browser-based, client-side development.
