Hi, 

 

My friend and I wanted to start a coding project together but we can't seem to find a program that allows 2 people to code at the same time (as in both working on the same thing at same time eg I write part of the script whilst he writes another but at the same time). Am I stupid and this isn't a thing? Do any of you know what program that allows this/has this feature?

 

Thanks

Do you play football/soccer?

A tool for branching and merging should do the trick. e.g. git. You write a bit of code and while your buddy is making a bit of code and the you merge the changes together.

It really depends on what you're trying to code. If you are working on a web project of virtually any type, I would recommend Cloud9. It allows coding in real time and shows who wrote what code within seconds. It is basically just your own Ubuntu VM in the cloud, so you get everything, including a terminal and a chat.

jEdit has a server tool that can open a program file, you edit via the server, and more than one client can connect at the same time.
