We will use technologies such as Podman for containerization, React for the UI, and Express and node-pty for the backend. WebSockets will handle real-time communication between the frontend and backend, creating a seamless, secure, and interactive environment to learn and execute Linux commands. Each connection will be isolated and ephemeral therefore ensuring security and separation between users. Why Use Podman, React, Express, node-pty, WebSockets, and Alpine? Why Podman? Podman is an open-source container engine that focuses [...]
