Coursera hasn't actually 'introduced' anything, it has acquited a company that did. But it's still an important development: "Coursera Labs allows learners to seamlessly work on projects and assignments in a browser without any environment setup or software downloads — simply click a button to instantly work on programming assignments using today's most in-demand tools like Jupyter Notebook, RStudio, VS Code, cloud software consoles, and almost any native desktop application." This is made possible with virtualization and cloud-based containers.
