Abstract: Techniques for providing an on-demand development environment are described. A service of a provider network receives a request to launch a development environment, such as a notebook, from an electronic device. The service obtains an identification of a computing cluster hosted by the provider network. The service obtains an identification of a compute instance hosted within the provider network, the compute instance executing a software environment to host one or more development environments. The service causes the compute instance to launch a development environment. The service sends a message to configure the launched development environment to execute a computer program written in the development environment using the computing cluster. The service generates a token to secure communications between the electronic device and the development environment and sends the token to an originator of the request.

Abstract: An electronic device may have a flexible organic light-emitting diode display layer. The edge of the flexible display layer may be bent. The display may have pixels formed from organic light-emitting diodes having anodes characterized by anode surface normals. For pixels in some regions of the display such as the bent edge of the display, the display may be characterized by a display surface normal for a pixel that differs from an anode surface normal for the anode of the organic light-emitting diode of that pixel. By tilting the anodes in this way, color shifts due to off-axis viewing of the pixels in the bend edge of the display can be minimized. If desired, tilted anodes may have multiple areas with different tilts. Sets of pixels with different anode tilts or other characteristics that differ may be supplied with common pixel data values.
