Start with your product
Create a fresh environment from a framework template, fork an existing sandbox, or import the repository you already own.
One sandbox, full product loop
Build it. Run it.
Ship it.
Take a product from its first working idea to a live application—and keep building in the same sandbox.

import { PHPSandbox } from '@phpsandbox/sdk'; const client = new PHPSandbox(token);const sandbox = await client.notebook.create( 'laravel', { title: 'Inventory API' });01 / 06A product environment, ready
Start from a configured Laravel sandbox and carry the same environment forward as the product grows.
Laravel 12 / PHP 8.4The whole product loop
The first run is only the beginning.
Create, configure, run, preview, and publish from the same sandbox.
Build against a real runtime
Work with files, Composer, terminals, services, secrets, mail, and ports—the actual moving parts of a PHP application.
Put a live URL in the loop
Every sandbox can become a working preview. Share the product, test an integration, or make review concrete.
Launch without starting over
Publish to managed containers, Laravel Cloud, or your own server without leaving the product context.
One sandbox, two interfacesUse the SDK.
Use the SDK.
Or open the workspace.
The SDK and browser workspace operate on the same sandbox, so automation and hands-on development share files, services, processes, and state.
- First-party SDKs for the complete sandbox lifecycle
- Real-time output, events, and lifecycle control
- A visual workspace for development and debugging

Built into real workflows
Where a sandbox becomes useful.
Interactive documentation
Let users run package examples with real Composer dependencies directly from the documentation.
Reproducible support
Share the exact code, runtime, and dependency state behind a bug report or integration issue.
Product prototyping
Give developers and automated tools a working environment and live URL for continued iteration.

What people buildPackage demos, reproducible bug reports, working prototypes, and complete products.
PHPSandbox provides a great experience for our users to test the code right from the documentation. And for any new feature or bug report, we can share code and see the result immediately. For code demo with composer dependencies, it’s the best!
