How It Works
Developers see a split-screen experience:- Left side: Step-by-step instructions guiding them through the integration
- Right side: Live code editor and preview showing real results
Key Features
Step-by-Step Guidance
Break complex integrations into digestible steps with clear instructions.
Live Sandbox Environments
Real containerized sandboxes running live apps—not simulations.
Scale to Thousands
Spin up 100s to 1000s of sandboxes on demand. We manage all the
infrastructure.
Works Anywhere
Embed in any documentation platform or website.
The Experience
Inspired by Stripe’s payment quickstart, the Guided Sandbox provides:- Clear navigation - Developers always know where they are and what’s next
- Interactive code - Not just reading code, but running it in real sandboxes
- Instant feedback - See real API responses immediately
- Self-serve exploration - Developers can experiment freely without breaking anything
Sandbox Infrastructure
This isn’t just a UI component—we manage the entire sandbox infrastructure so
you don’t have to.
- Containerized environments - Each developer gets an isolated sandbox
- Auto-scaling - Handle traffic spikes without provisioning
- Fully managed - We handle containers, networking, and cleanup
- Developer self-serve - No manual provisioning needed per user
