I have something similar[0] but with a different philosophy. Basically, a docker container running and you can execute code against with ability to set timeouts, auto install and uninstall dependencies and a bunch of other cool stuff.

The pain point of all of this is dependencies and making sure someone doesn’t use your infrastructure to DDOS other folks.

Very cool project! I like that you support REST API. That's something we don't have yet. We actively decided to use Firecracker microVMs [0] instead of containers for hardened security.

> making sure someone doesn’t use your infrastructure to DDOS other folks Agreed. And crypto mining!

> The pain point of all of this is dependencies Would love to learn more. Can you elaborate?

Another challenge is how to make the whole product cost efficient for our users. You don't want them to pay for idle sandboxes running on E2B but only when they actually need them for serverless execution. Firecracker and its snapshots are really helpful with this.
