Kobra – Real-time collaborative code editor with built-in video Chat
Kobra is an online code editor that allows you to collaborate with your team quickly and efficiently. After you connect to your development environment, you can see changes in your files as your team members type them. Kobra also has built in video, voice and text chat so you're never more than a click away from your team.
- madmichael 13y agoLooks like a great editor. Easy to collaborate. Next best thing to having someone over your shoulder.
- mkedev 13y agoIf anything it's actually better. Rather than stare over your shoulder they can sit at their own desk in their own chair!
- yngbldj 13y agoCan't wait to get my hands on it!
- grocerybag 13y agoThe built in video chat is awesome, instead of having to sit on the phone or on skype I can just yell at my coworkers from the same window!
- Bjoern 13y agoCurious question, how does version control (SCM) fit into this picture?
- mkremer90 13y agoSorry I didn't respond earlier, I was getting server errors when hitting reply. SCM is still managed on your server, not built into Kobra yet, however that is definitely on our list of things planned.

- nacs 13y agoSame thing I noticed. All 4 accounts (which were the only 4 comments in this thread earlier) were created just an hour or 2 before this post was made and the only comments those accounts have posted are in this thread. Couldn't be more obvious/idiotic with the shilling. I don't see why the company couldn't have let their product speak for itself instead ruining their rep with this underhanded tactic. Also, their site says the public beta opens in 11 days.. Why not wait till then to show HN so the developers here could actually try the product themselves? Some brain-dead marketing from kobra.
- sitkack 13y agoTactless. They must not be regulars, because they would know that the whole screen would be awash in green user names. The product actually _does_ look interesting, but after this, not touching it. I'll stick with etherpad and skype.
- mattsah 13y agoHow's the Linux support?
- mkremer90 13y agoIt's browser based, so linux support should work fine.
