Today, cloud computing refers to a style of computing where dynamically scalable resources are put as a service over the Internet. Users do not need to understand the inner mechanisms of these services they only need to know to use them. Thus, this advantage of cloud computing is said to be cost-effective as users do not need to worry about hardware costs anymore. There are three types of services that is brought about by cloud computing: Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). PaaS typically provides a web-based development environment and a runtime environment with cloud services for developers to use. However, these web-based IDEs are tightly coupled into the vendors systems and services and are propriety. This research focuses on presenting a web-based IDE as a SaaS which support the complete lifestyle of building a web application without relying on a specific platform and infrastructure.
