JavaScript Playground - Run JS Code Online

Welcome to the DevsCurry JavaScript Playground, a free online coding sandbox designed for developers, students, and educators. Write, test, run, and format modern JavaScript (ES6 / ES2020+) directly in your browser with zero installation and no login required.

Interactive JavaScript Starter Code

This sandbox launches with interactive starter code that you can edit and run immediately:

function greet(name) {
  console.log(`Hello, ${name}!`);
}

greet('world');

Key Features & Technical Specifications

  • Client-Side Sandboxing: Code executes entirely in an isolated browser Web Worker, preventing cross-origin data exposure and keeping your code private.
  • Monaco Editor: Powered by the same editor engine as Visual Studio Code, complete with syntax highlighting, line numbers, and autocomplete.
  • Vim & Emacs Modes: Toggle standard keybindings, Vim emulation (with status bar), or Emacs keybindings directly from the toolbar.
  • Integrated Prettier Formatter: Keep code clean and properly styled with built-in Prettier standalone formatting (Ctrl+S / Cmd+S).
  • Interactive Output Console: Streams output directly from console.log(), console.info(), console.warn(), and console.error().
  • Watchdog Timeout: Automatically terminates execution after 10 seconds if an infinite loop or hanging promise is encountered.
  • Multi-File Tabs & State Persistence: Create helper files, rename tabs, and your workspace auto-saves to local storage.
