Sharing webapp access to another user

Hello, I know it is not safe to do so, but I currently share my account with one other user so we may manage the same webapp. (Including issuing git pull commands, access mysql, etc). But I am wondering if there is a way to share the webapp to another user (or a few users) instead of sharing my account?

If you put that webapp itself onto a separate account, you can share the logins for that account and also nominate someone as the "teacher" etc, which would allow the teacher to navigate to that account and issue commands etc while logged in to their teacher account.

Would there be a danger in sharing PA accounts? It just seems unethical to give logins to other people.

The danger is mostly in the level of trust you have for the person you're sharing with (whether it's explicit trust that they won't do something bad, or implicit trust the they won't do something careless).
