codelauncher

A Flask Python server to launch C/C++ code and Python code online.

This is a simple, light Flask server that allows you to quickly run C code or Python code. It uses only HTML5 and CSS3. No Javascript is needed but if activated the Ace editor <http://ace.c9.io>_ is available.

The only dependency is Flask.

Below you have screenshots_.

This software is made for you if you are looking for:

• something simple to write basic code
• something unified to run C and Python basic programs from source code (switching using one clic)
• not creating a file, compiling, using a terminal neither using an interpreter
• having a quick result using one clic on a button
• no advertising and open source tool
• using a web browser
• working in localhost
• not needing javascript (unless needing a more efficient code editor)
• customizable
• not security constraints

WARNING: Be careful, this is intended to run in local as there is no sandbox, no security management.
