    JSFiddle

    JSFiddle

    JSFiddle has the notion of panels (or tabs if you switch into the tabbed layout), there are 4 panels, 3 where you can enter code, and 1 to see the result: HTML - structure code, no need to add body doctype head, that's added automatically, CSS - styles. You can switch pre-pocessor to SCSS, JavaScript - behavior. There are many frameworks and code pre-processors you can use. Once you enter code, just hit "Run" in the top actions bar, and the fourth panel with results will appear. SFiddle allows you to switch the layout of the editor from the classic 2x2 grid to something that suits your needs. In addition to the grids mode it also has a tabbed mode. Grids are fully resizable. As an addition resizing the Results panel will tell you its width (handy for working on media queries).
