About Codeshare

Codeshare is an online code editor for real-time collaborative editing and sharing in the browser. Users open an editor, write or copy in code, and share it with others for pair programming, troubleshooting, or general collaboration.

The product is used for conducting remote or in-person developer interviews, allowing interviewers to set coding tasks and observe candidates working in real time as an alternative to whiteboard coding. It is also used for teaching programming, with universities and colleges using it to share and review code with students.

Code sharing on the platform is free. It was created by Lee Munroe and Tejesh Mehta.
