History
In 2009 PHPanywhere (the predecessor of Codeanywhere) was launched, which was a web-based FTP client and text editor, designed for PHP. That project stayed idle until May 22, 2013 when the founders launched Codeanywhere.
Codeanywhere raised $600,000 from World Wide Web Hosting on July 15, 2013 when Ben Welch-Bolen became a board member. In August 2014 Codeanywhere was accepted in Techstars’s Fall Boston Class. In 2014, as part of the TechCrunch Disrupt NY Conference, the audience voted Codeanywhere the best company in Startup Alley.
