Web Applications Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for power users of web applications. It's 100% free, no registration required.

I would like to train students on how to develop for the popular CMS platforms (Wordpress / Drupal / etc). To do that, I'd like to create a cloud server, say on EC2 or Rackspace, and then give each student a login to that server.

The web app should handle deploying code and databases to each student's home directory and MySQL database, etc., so they have a starting point which we'll all work from.

Anyone know if such a thing exists?

It's called LMS - learning management system. – dnbrv Apr 12 '12 at 2:33

There is a free e-learning management system called Moodle. It will not provide you the parts about deploying code and such but it will help with making the lessons and have links to downloads and such.

It's not exactly what your looking for, but unfortunately there is not much out there for this.
