🌍

Zero barriers

No account creation, no credit card, no App Store download. Open a URL and start coding — that's the whole process.

// Creator & Developer · hiren.js.org

Hiren Rathod is a developer from Surendranagar, Gujarat, India who built HirenJS to solve a real problem — most online code editors are desktop-only or require heavy installs. HirenJS was born out of the belief that a student with only a phone should be able to learn JavaScript just as effectively as one with a laptop.

The project has been assigned a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) making it citable in academic work, and is actively maintained on GitHub.

Open Source & Free Forever

HirenJS is 100% open source under the MIT License. Every line of code is on GitHub — fork it, customise it for your classroom, report bugs, or contribute new features. The community makes it better for everyone.
