cloudpebble was the best part about Pebble - it made development so easy I did so much more of it
The developer experience for modern devices is so awful - the teams driving it are so immersed in big team development that they leak build systems, config, package management, certificates, permissions, and store integration concerns all over the place - then some of them have minor errors and you're stuck
Sometimes you just want to write a single file of code and have it run. Cloudpebble will probably be the thing that brings me back to pebble.

I understand that you need an account to save/publish stuff on their servers, but I would really love a "guest mode" where I can just try it out, maybe even save to LocalStorage.

Exactly my thoughts.

If this was the internet back when I started using a personal computer, I would put it down and do something else.

They publish local development tools too, this is just another option if you want it.
