I prototype AI features for clients and needed a quick, clean sandbox. Disposable Linux VMs spin up in seconds, I SSH in, and the Shelley AI coding agent runs inside the VM to write and test code. Exposing apps over HTTPS is fast, and I can automate everything with the API. It totally changed how I prototype.

Trusted ReviewerSecure, scalable classroom sandboxes with API control
What I liked
What could be better
I run a remote software course and need private, per-assignment sandboxes. IAM-based sharing with private-by-default infra lets me grant and revoke access instantly, without risk. The API-first VM creation lets me provision dozens of environments in minutes, so demos and grading stay consistent. SSH access from any device and HTTPS hosting make student projects easy to run.
