Why Magic Sandbox?

Software engineers deserve a 10x better learning medium.

We believe it's time to evolve the Learning Medium through which software engineers grasp new technologies. Leveraging the latest cloud and browser technologies, we've built a hyper interactive sandbox environment where real-world content and dev tools are merged. We foster a hands-on approach where engineers learn by struggling.

Text scaled learn by reading.
Youtube scaled learn by watching
Magic Sandbox scales learn by doing.

Oscar Nunez
Engineer at Cybiquity

Personally I have been studying k8s for a while on all sorts of platforms (Udemy, LinuxAcademy, Katacoda, Books...). But your visualization really clicks things for me... It is not as dry as just typing in code and getting text as feedback... I have never actually seen what my commands do so visually...
