Mozilla has updated Thimble, its online code editor. The app now has a sleeker interface, and allows you to drag-and-drop a zipped website into the interface so you can start picking through it straight away.
Like many IDEs, Thimble positions the code on the left side of the screen, and a preview on the right. It works with Web standards like HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and is positioned as an educational tool for the classroom.
In addition to a refreshed interface and drag-and-drop hacking, Thimble also has a slew of better tutorials for those just starting out. There is also a Web preview tool so users know just how their design will look on mobile.
