I needed one. I've used a few of the alternatives in the past and the browser's console is the most lightweight and quick solution to this. However, it was easier to setup something that was a little more than just the browser's JS engine and a little more on the server. I don't need access to all files and folders but I do need a decent way to install deps and so, you have this.
- Fast
- No Fluff
- No user signup required
- Just does what it's supposed to
You can use the hosted version at jsrepl.barelyhuman.dev
The recommended way to host this is by using the docker image, primarily to reduce the risk of exposing your system to the web.
docker pull ghcr.io/barelyhuman/jsrepl:main
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/barelyhuman/jsrepl:main- Open your browser to
localhost:8000and you are good to go!
You can look at other tags available for the same on the Containers Page
I don't plan to add a lot of features to this but if there's bugs and documentation that you wish to fix or add to, please feel free to raise PR's and issues for the same
