You mean like Atom? A lot of the web IDEs are pretty good nowadays. Not decades behind desktop software.

No. Atom is a text-editor with plugins. It's no more a competitor for IntelliJ than UltraEdit was a competitor to Visual Studio.NET. (IMO)
But I was actually talking about in-browser environments like CodeAnywhere.

Depending on the language and stack you choose, a text editor with a terminal and a REPL may be all you need. I spend most of my day switching between emacs, a terminal and a browser.

Atom is in-browser. It just so happens to ship with its own browser (Atom-Shell is based on Chromium)...
