It's a pretty editor, but it's not an IDE. No build tools, no debugging, no navigation, no refactoring, etc.

We are hard at work! Time and iterations are needed. A lot is coming your way, it is a very exciting project!
We're also looking to integrate the web terminal https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/integration/termin... into the web IDE
Keep an eye out at the issue tracker mentioned in the article if you want to be most up to date on development
I'm guessing IDE is more off a signal of intent for now.

We called it IDE from the first commit, as we intend for it to be a full replacement of a local IDE in the future.
Besides having a vision ourselves of that, we also want to encourage and motivate others to contribute.

Integrated with Git/Gitlab.
Right, but so does Atom. Atom is a text editor, not an IDE.
As popular classic saying goes; If you have to create a project to save a file then itβs an IDE.

The line is pretty blurry these days. If you install enough extensions, it's very difficult to differentiate between Atom/VS Code and a "real" IDE.

Even vim can be made to function as an IDE.
