Function Compute:WebIDE

Last Updated:Jun 08, 2026

WebIDE is an online integrated development environment (IDE) built into Alibaba Cloud Function Compute. It provides a browser-based development experience similar to Visual Studio Code (VS Code), letting you write, debug, and deploy functions directly in the browser—no local environment setup required.

Feature introduction

WebIDE provides the following features:

  • Complete code development, deployment, and debugging capabilities

  • Consistent terminal and runtime environments between WebIDE and Function Compute

    • Common development tools—including pip, npm, and composer—and runtime-specific programming languages are pre-installed, so you can package third-party dependencies without environment compatibility issues.

    • Serverless Devs is built into WebIDE and pre-configured for your account. You do not need to run the s config command to configure Serverless Devs. The default alias is default.

  • AI-assisted coding with AI Coding Assistant

    AI Coding Assistant is available out of the box and helps you write, review, and troubleshoot code more efficiently. It performs real-time code review, detects potential logic errors, and identifies the root cause of function anomalies with actionable suggestions.

Note

WebIDE is optimized for Google Chrome. Use the latest version of Google Chrome for the best experience.
