CompileBox is a Docker-based sandbox service that compiles and runs user-submitted code in isolated containers and returns the output via a Node.js API. It supports many languages and enforces resource limits and execution timeouts so untrusted code cannot harm the host.

Use cases

  • run untrusted user-submitted code safely
  • build an online code compiler in the browser
  • add a code execution API to my app
  • sandbox code execution for an online judge
  • compile and run code in multiple languages server-side
  • execute user code in an isolated docker container

When to choose

  • you need to safely execute arbitrary user-submitted code in many languages
  • you are building an online compiler, coding interview, or judge platform
  • you want per-run isolation with automatic container cleanup

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained project - the latest release is from 2018
  • you need Windows or macOS hosting - only Linux distributions are supported
  • you need fine-grained modern sandboxing beyond Docker containers
