Codenvy teams with Microsoft to help developers work together
Developers who want to collaborate more efficiently on coding projects have a new tool to work with, thanks to a partnership between Microsoft and Codenvy.
The companies have teamed up to offer an extension to Microsoft’s Visual Studio Team Services that lets developers create a cloud-based workspace with the correct tools to work on a shared project. In an unexpected move, Microsoft also joined the Eclipse Foundation to support the project underpinning the integration.
Codenvy users can click on a link inside a work item in VSTS and they’ll be transported to a cloud workspace that has the project files they need along with a dedicated runtime. Each workspace is containerized using Docker, and allows developers to work together on a change before it’s merged into the main code repository to evaluate changes before they’re committed.
