# One substrate

Not just a codebox. Four primitives.

Sandboxes

Kernel-isolated VMs. Created in 49 ms, forked into parallel universes.

git pushbuild · vmlive url

App hosting

git push → built in a VM → live behind a stable URL.

postgres://…db.pandastack.ai · ready in ~34 s

Postgres 16

A dedicated VM and durable volume per database. pgvector included.

*/5 * * * * → fn_3a90

Functions

Deploy whole directories. Invoke over HTTP or on a cron.

# Anatomy of a create

One snapshot restore. Eight steps.

No warm pool. Every create walks the same hot path — scroll to replay it.
