A playground for in-browser interpreters launched on September 11, 2015 with 79 votes, #592 of 3,463 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.
In plain words
This is an interactive playground for experimenting with programming language interpreters directly in a web browser. It allows users to write and execute code without installing software locally, making it accessible for learning and testing different languages. The tool is designed for developers and programmers interested in exploring language syntax and behavior, as well as those curious about how interpreters work. It supports multiple languages and provides an immediate feedback loop for code execution.

Program Explorer, a container playground2025 · programexplorer.org · ▲73Inspired by Compiler Explorer and other playground/fiddle websites like jsfiddle, db-fiddle, Go playground, and Rust playground, I thought it would be cool to have a playground for nearly any program so I've been working on Program Explorer: a playground for running programs from containers. I am inspired by these playgrounds because they are great educational tools for quickly experimenting and as communication tools by sharing shortlinks that reproduce bugs for instance. I would love for every open source project that publishes a container to get their own playground for free. I'm…
I made a HTMX Playground 100% in the browser2024 · lassebomh.github.io · ▲482I recently dug up an old project in an attempt to improve on it. It's a code sandbox for playing around with HTMX in the browser, that runs a mock server within the sandbox iframe. The server "framework" is loosely based on Django, so if you're familiar with Django, you'll immediately understand what's going on. I recommend clicking through the examples. Github repo: https://github.com/lassebomh/htmx-playground Probably my favorite part is the lack of HTMX specific code. It's designed to mimic the client and server, but really nothing else. In principle, this means that…
