What are Pair Programming Tools for Linux?

Pair programming tools, also known as remote pair programming tools, facilitate real-time collaboration between two or more developers working on the same codebase simultaneously. These tools often include features like shared code editors, live cursors, voice or video chat, and version control integration. Popular tools like Visual Studio Live Share, CodeTogether, and Replit allow remote developers to work together as if they were in the same room. By enabling instant feedback and collaborative problem-solving, these tools enhance productivity, knowledge sharing, and code quality. Pair programming tools are especially valuable in agile development environments and for mentoring junior developers.

    motepair
    Remote pair programming tool for Atom. Lag free! We’ve done a basic integration with Share.js to allow concurrent editing via OT and bind some Atom events to a websocket, like opening/closing/saving files. Use the Atom package manager, which can be found in the Settings view or run apm install motepair from the command line. Open the project to start collaborating via the Motepair, connect command (you can trigger this command via Cmd+Shift+P). Please make sure that peers to open the same project directory. This is a very important step as we rely on the relative project path to identify the correct file. Deploy your own server easily on Heroku. The connection right now it is not encrypted if you have problems with that, please do not use it. That is part of the backlog. Be aware that this package is still in development, so it can be unstable, we are working hard to make the Remote Pair programming a better experience to all.
