Sandbox demo
Wouldn't there be a way to create an online sandbox that runs the demo found at https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/quick-start
Something like github codespaces could help try the snippets from that page instantly and I think it could be very cool
What do you think about this ?

Hi @Yasbaltrine. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

That's a great idea! In fact, there's an open issue on the Wasp GitHub repository discussing the possibility of creating a Wasp template for CodeSandbox. CodeSandbox recently released a beta version with Docker support, which could potentially be used to run a Wasp demo. This would allow users to try out Wasp without having to install anything on their local machine. You can follow the progress of this feature here (https://github.com/wasp-lang/wasp/issues/703).
In the meantime, if you want to try Wasp without installing it, you can use the Wasp Template for Gitpod (https://github.com/wasp-lang/gitpod-template) which allows you to give Wasp a spin in the browser without any setup.
Also, if you're interested in creating a new Wasp app quickly, you can use Wasp AI (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/wasp-ai/creating-new-app) to generate a new Wasp app in minutes just from a title and short description.

Sorry @Yasbaltrine, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist:
Perhaps try again in 15mins?
@Vinny (@Wasp) did something with Codespaces already
