What it is

It runs on the web and iOS, requires no installation, and describes its runtime scope as full-stack. The platform advertises real-time collaboration, private projects, and public sharing. Java and Python projects can use graphical and sound support; other listed tools include ChatGPT integration and shell access for advanced users. CodePad says it works on Chromebooks and iPads. Users can create temporary, unlisted projects without an account, while its homepage directs teachers and school administrators to CodePad School for a dedicated school environment and classroom features. The plan is free, and the homepage does not state plan limits.
