EditorLatest

VSCode extensions & bring your own settings

  • Install VSCode extensions. Devboxes now support extensions from the Open VSX Registry — add themes, language packs, and your favourite tools to make the editor your own.
  • Bring your local VSCode settings. Export a profile file from VSCode on your machine, then drag it into a generous.dev devbox to import your settings in one step.
Models

OpenAI models are here — GPT-5.6

  • GPT-5.6 Luna, Terra & Sol. OpenAI's latest models are now available on generous.dev. Pick the one that fits the task — Luna is available on the free plan, with Terra and Sol on paid plans.
  • New “Max” thinking effort. Push reasoning further on models that support it, including the GPT-5.6 family and Claude Fable 5.
Multiplayer

Invite your team to collaborate in real time

  • Invite anyone to a devbox. Open a devbox, hit the cog, type an email, and send the invite. The recipient accepts from their own generous.dev profile, opens the same devbox, and you're collaborating live within seconds — with an AI agent in the loop.
  • Bring your whole team. Add as many people as you like to one session and work on code together in real time, using AI to reach the next goal for your business.
Models

New models — Kimi K2.7 & GLM 5.2

  • More models to choose from. Kimi K2.7 and GLM 5.2 are now available on generous.dev, alongside the most recent Anthropic models. Code on your GitHub repos in seconds with these powerful open-weight models.
Launch

generous.dev launch

generous.dev is here — Instant cloud-based coding environments. Spin up an isolated cloud devbox in a second, edit in a familiar VSCode editor from any device, and power up your development with a built-in coding agent.

  • Code with agents. Start a devbox straight from a prompt, then watch an agent read, search, and edit your files and run commands right in the devbox — picking the model and effort that fit the task.
  • Connected to GitHub. Review a live diff of every change, and commit straight back to your repository without ever leaving the editor.
  • A new dashboard. See all of your devboxes, recent activity and token spend at a glance.
Preview

Public preview

generous.dev opens to the public — a collaborative coding devbox that runs entirely in your browser, with no VMs to manage and nothing to install.

  • Instant devboxes. Pick a popular open-source repository and start editing in seconds, inside an isolated Linux environment that boots instantly.
  • Real-time multiplayer. Open the same editor with others and see live cursors and selections as you work — as fast as editing on your local machine.
