exe.dev's durable sandboxes win over devs: SSH in as root, plus Shelley coding agent
davidcrawshaw · x · 2026-10-14
exe.dev offers durable sandboxes for developers and agents: reserve a pool of vCPUs/memory, SSH in as root with apt and systemd, servers persist and stay private-by-default with IAM sharing, plus a built-in web coding agent called Shelley. Author davidcrawshaw says he's hand-filling docs. Users report vibecoding complete backoffice apps and even programming remote servers from a phone, though the site has drawn HN criticism too.
