Good tech, but only good fit for StackBlitz.

Don't know who will need this product to run a node.js enviroment in browser.

We used this to build an interactive cli in the browser for Seam, and I’m currently working on using it to host a local typescript language server for tscircuit so that the playground has autocomplete. Imo a very useful technology

[tcper]

You can use xterm.js to implement interactive cli in browsers, and you can use backend language server to implement autocomplete.

xterm.js is just not so fashion.

We originally thought the same but a few years back started seeing increasing demand outside of stackblitz itself.

Surprisingly a very large and growing number of use cases across interactive edu tools, AI code execution (https://webcontainers.io/ai), SaaS dev envs for end users to write code, amongst others
