  Hey, there’s always double-clicking the icon too. Now that is exhausting.

  I imagine they mean launching in more of a release sense (IE: Announcing the launch of new app XYZ). I sure hope so, anyways.

    Probably, I don’t really know how a web IDE would make it any easier but perhaps that’s because of a lack of personal experience.

      It’s selling itself as more than an IDE. The idea is to have templates for common languages/frameworks. Ideally, this would mean not having to learn how to init a project in a given framework, not having to learn the build tools, not having to learn deployment, ci/cd, etc. Just open this new webapp, pick a framework, develop, and click a “launch” button to have it spin up in GCP.

        That sums up, I could use sensible CMake templates in my life.
