So trinket now lives on a trinket.strivemath.org and it's free for everyone. It's the best alternative to trinket.io.
I saw so many other companies try to push their own paid coding editors, most of which are 2x to 10x more expensive than trinket. So we decided that a free platform, hosted by an education company that follows all data privacy rules is better for the education industry.
Questions: - All paid plans say "Get started", but clicking those buttons does not lead to the paid features. Will there be paid plans? I can't access any teacher focused features like courses - Is this a fork? (based on the above it seems like it is, and help page is different) Will you accept community contributions? The github link at the bottom points to https://github.com/trinketapp/trinket-oss - If no open source contributions, will this be updated? The Java version is version 8, for example - What's the relationship between the hosted trinket and https://strivemath.org/ide? Will these be merged?
Again, thanks for hosting, looking forward to answers
Trinket was first built more than 10 years ago, it's actually really interesting seeing how gpt 5.5 and Opus 4.8 are managing/struggling with modernizing the stack
i would also make clear what changed, if anything. are you really letting users host private courses on your servers? the middle plan says self host at the bottom, which is probably not what the original plan was about.
i'd also like to see a way to use the code editor without login. no server features. only save in the browser and allow downloading.
