Remix (aka. Browser-Solidity) is a browser-based Solidity compiler and IDE.
Visit https://remix.ethereum.org to use; it will always deliver the latest version.
The gh-pages branch always has the latest stable build of Remix. It also contains a ZIP file with the entire build. Download it to use offline.
Note: it contains the latest release of Solidity available at the time of the packaging. No other compiler versions are supported.
Many dependencies are only provided via npm:
npm install # fetch dependencies
npm run build # build application into build/app.js
Now point your browser to index.html to open the application.
