StackBlitz Keynote

" summary

A browser IDE that runs the full stack locally inside a tab using the WebAssembly-based WebContainer, boots in seconds by sending ~10–15 MB instead of hundreds, and claims dependency install and repo cloning up to 10x faster than local. It mounts the desktop VS Code with extensions, provides a git CLI and Chrome DevTools for backend debugging, and adds one‑click GitHub workflows like CodeFlow and pr.new to create, reproduce, edit and merge PRs; public beta is live and open source use is free.
