History
[edit]Gitpod is developed by a German start-up Typefox, it is based on Theia, an open source cloud-and-desktop IDE developed by Ericsson, IBM, TypeFox and RedHat. Gitpod integrated deeply with Github, allowing the users to stay in the “GitHub flow”.
About
[edit]Gitpod beta was first made available in August 2018, followed by the stable release on 5th of April 2019. Gitpod is based on OSS tech like VS Code, Docker and Kubernetes, it is familiar, comprehensive, extensible, and easy to use. With deep GitHub integration, tools for sharing, and a focus on usability, Gitpod contains your entire dev workflow in a browser tab. Gitpod automates tasks for developers with the help of a small configuration file. Gitpod workspaces are disposable, and it's becomes really easy to launch a fresh workspace when needed. Since Gitpod is based on Theia, it supports many programming languages and also comes with a integrated terminal.
Features

Code Reviews
[edit]You can open pull requests in Gitpod to run, navigate, and review the code from within the IDE. You can also reply to comments and publish code reviews without switching back to GitHub.

- Share a live session to a co-worker and start working on the same workspace.
- Create a snapshot of your workspace and let people launch their own copy of your workspace.
