You're not alone with finding cloud9 too convoluted to even bother messing
with. Personally, I have years experience with Debian( think over 20 ), and
am a very experienced programmer in a few different languages. So I'm not
exactly computer illiterate, and can usually solve most problems rather
quickly. Not so with the current default base Debian image with cloud9 etc.

I actually found it much easier to build my own Debian images from scratch,
based on Roberts kernel build guide, compiling Nodejs personally, and
installing it via a package, than using the cloud9 images with bonescript,
and all that fluff.

I just use a very basic custom image that is less than 200M in size, with
Nodejs + Express + NPM installed, and then ssh in to write code on a NFS
share <--- This is so I can edit code for the BBB on a local system running
Windows, in my editor of choice. VIM, and all that is kind of neat, but is
not exactly my sort of "thing" . . .
