In a new survey by JetBrains, 53% of developers surveyed said they had edited code on remote machines. Of this group, only 25% use cloud development environments, like CodeSpaces, Gitpod, Cloud Workstations and JetBrains Space.
Among other findings about remote development:
- Half of the respondents said they engage in collaborative development, up from the 30% who reported the same in the 2022 version of the same survey.
- Of those who collaborate on development, 49% said they use video calls with screen sharing to work on code with other people, while 20% said they use a code editor or integrated development environment (IDE) with a collaboration feature. A significant portion of respondents, 34%, said they use nothing.
- Use of in-cloud code editors or IDEs has not changed since last year and remains at 10%, while 73% are using a standalone editor and 76% are using a desktop IDE.
