This looks awesome. I had to stop playing the demo video, to go sign up immediately.

Nice free tier, but the rest looks a bit pricy.

UPDATE: After signing up and creating my first box, I cant find the mac application thats in the demo video to install :(

UPDATE2: I contacted them via chat, and while it isnt reachable by link once logged in, its at https://nitrous.io/mac

This has been in beta for a while, and we'd like to thank all our beta testers! We're very excited about this release and we believe this makes cloud-based development more approachable to users who are used to graphical text editors.

Having just tried it out (for the first time, briefly) is it purely for development, not production? Its great by the way. But do you see it as a dev server with the user organising their own production boxes elsewhere?

Yes purely for development. All our boxes come bundled with the heroku toolbelt and google app engine for you to deploy your apps elsewhere.

Be awesome if the online code editor included Emmet http://docs.emmet.io/ like jsFiddle. :}

Congrats on the launch, this looks great! Have you guys testing the file syncing a git repo or is that not recommended?
