Hi Everyone,
There are currently small issues we are having :) , we are definitely working on it.
Please if you have any of these issues and want a direct reply send me a mail at support@mbed.org :) .
In terms of what alternatives you can look at, maybe you'd like to try out mbed-CLI, which is a command line tool for offline compiling.

If you need anything, let me know.
Regards,

For a couple of days now, the compiler has been spotty in its availability. Its been occasionally becoming unavailable, but today it seems to be for a prolonged period... I have no idea why, but it seems to be a problem with the mbed compiler end, not ours.

Me too, can take over a minute to open the compiler, then another minute or more to open a previously working file, then when the file is finally visible and you compile it hangs on the compile window for an indefinite amount of time until you get this:
'Server responded with a failure code 502 - Bad Gateway'
Some acknowledgement and help would be well appreciated, one minute I'm super impressed at the way you can get fast results at prototyping stage with little investment then I'm super annoyed at being made to look daft when demoing it in front of the boss/client, please ARM lads at least give us a heads up when things are going wrong

Same problem here, exporting doesn't work either.
Edit: works again, thanks!

I have also problems to use the online compiler since 3 days. Sometimes I can compile then I get an error then nothing works or compiler does not start. Very annoying. The https://developer.mbed.org site is also sometimes very slow.

Answer? I was excited about this but using an on-line compiles puts you entire project at the great risk. When the web site stops working there is nothing you can do about it.
I'm going to have to figure out how to abandon the on-line IDE.
same problem here, compiler page is not responding at all.
posted by Rudresh Pandit 21 Jan 2015Hello there,
I just received my first mbed device yesterday, this is my first time using mbed and I am having the same problem as well. I tried every browser I have and I even tried using Google Chrome in Windows 8 mode but still nothing has happened. We really need help with this.
posted by Jan Ray Rulida 28 Jan 2015Same with me. I click on ANYTHING and then get up to get coffee or go read some web page and have to keep checking to see is (say) something changes. It is UNUSABLE
posted by Chris Albertson 10 Oct 2016I have the problem that the compiler doesn't respond at all... Well I didn't find anything helpful on the internet and also the mbed support wasn't able to help me so I had to find another solution. I have Win10, i7, 16GB Ram btw... Maybe this helps (for those whose compiler still doesn't work): Download VirtualBox and a Win7 machine. There are enaugh tutorials on youtube for this. This worked fine for me... yeah it's a bit annoying having to start the virtual machine everytime... but it works!
