Are there any specific pitfalls to be aware of when using cloud-based IDEs like Cloud9 for PHP development?

One potential pitfall when using cloud-based IDEs like Cloud9 for PHP development is the reliance on internet connectivity. If your internet connection is slow or unstable, it can hinder your ability to work efficiently. To mitigate this issue, it's recommended to have a backup plan in place, such as saving your work locally or using a different IDE when internet connection is unreliable.

// Example code snippet for saving work locally as a backup plan
$file = 'backup.php';
$code = '<?php // Your PHP code here ?>';
file_put_contents($file, $code);
