Is it possible to use Cloud9 or another "cloud" based IDE with Digital Ocean? Ideally I'd like to use my Digital Ocean VPS as a development platform while using my Chromebook. Does anyone have experience with this

Cloud9 supports connecting to DigitalOcean VMs out of the box. Check out this blog post and video for a step by step guide https://c9.io/site/blog/2014/09/digitalocean/.

The official documentation about this feature is at https://docs.c9.io/runyourown_workspace.html.

You can set up a git server on your droplet and have it auto-deploy when Cloud9 pushes to it: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-set-up-automatic-deployment-with-git-with-a-vps.

Hi,

You can checkout www.sourcelair.com, where you can set up DigitalOcean deployment in 6-steps (s.lair.io/blog-deploy-digital-ocean). That means that you can use this feature to push your code to your DigitalOcean server, with a single click.

This might fit your needs.
