Do JavaScript experts consider JSBin a decent environment for this task? JavaScript is a bit verbose and I would resent simply the aspect of having to write a substantial amount of JavaScript without autocomplete.<p>I just played with JSBin and it doesn&#x27;t have autocomplete out of the box.<p>Edit: whoa I just re-read the OP and found this<p>&gt; Most [candidates] tend to use the laptop &amp; JSBin provided<p>That&#x27;s super hypocritical, OP (see your paragraph headed &quot;Comfortable situation&quot;)! If you &quot;provide&quot; them with an environment of course most are going to use what you provide since that is what you are suggesting. So now you&#x27;re filtering for people for whom that laptop model and the JSBin tool are familiar and comfortable.<p>Or in the case of those that reject your environment and choose their own familiar and comfortable laptop and editor, you are filtering for those with the self-confidence to reject the suggestion of the interviewer, which doesn&#x27;t really help with your stated goal.<p>It&#x27;s a shame because I like some of your other points :&#x2F;
