I built a zero fuss, blazing fast JS playground that letโs you try your ideas instantly
Yet another JS playground, with a simple rule: Your code never leaves your browser
Really simple JavaScript console "playground"/"sandbox" for anyone, esp. beginners.
those are the two good ones - you can even just write code in a .js file and open it with the browser and it will display the results of a function or whatever you write. That's how I used to test simple functions.

Because it has everything you need to test and share your code and it's intuitive (put your code, click run. done.)

Hey folks, sharing my attempt at creating a quick and easy to use JS sandbox with yโall.
Feel free to play around and share any feedback. Happy coding!
Hey r/javascript,
I built Glyphide, an open-source JS scratchpad, based on a few principles I wanted in a tool for myself:
- 100% Local & Private: No accounts, no servers, no tracking. It's your code, on your machine. Execution happens entirely in the browser.
- A Clean, Deliberate UI: The interface is minimal but capable. It's fully responsive, so you can easily inspect and run code on a phone.
- Modern JS Environment: It handles modern syntax, including Promises and `async/await`, so the environment works as you'd expect.
It's designed for simple tasks: prototyping functions, testing algorithms, or sharing interactive code examples.
The main trade-off is that code is shared via the URL to keep it serverless. This makes it ideal for snippets, not large applications.
It's powered by QuickJS running in a Web Worker. I'm open to any feedback.
