Playground allows end-user to spin up a substrate based development environment in seconds. A full machine with terminal is then available from a web browser, ready to launch a chain and remotely access it. Playground templates can be created and maintained by 3rd parties. Playground instances can be integrated and manipulated via a JavaScript API.
Access playground at docs.substrate.io/playground/.
Documentation can be found at paritytech.github.io/substrate-playground/ (and its source here)
Playground can be integrated in external pages. This opens the door for more advanced usage e.g. interactive tutorials.
