Show HN: Eleven – Free, open-source, Codespaces alternative with automatic HTTPS (github.com/eleven-sh)

Hey HN, Eleven is the second project that I've built to learn Go. It lets you create code sandboxes, in your cloud provider account, easily.

What's a "code sandbox"? Just a VM, running in your cloud provider account, with some runtimes pre-installed, your repositories cloned, a way to connect to it with your preferred editor (or via SSH) and a way to serve your apps easily via HTTP (with automatic HTTPS).

You could use it as a remote development environment, to test some code or even to deploy your app. It's up to you.

For example, to deploy a Node.JS app:

$ eleven aws init hello-world --runtimes [email protected] --repositories eleven-sh/hello-world

> Success! The sandbox "hello-world" was initialized.

$ ssh eleven/hello-world forever node index.js

> Forever: command started. Run "forever stop" in current path to stop.

$ eleven aws serve hello-world 8000 --as hello.eleven.sh

> Success! The port "8000" is now reachable at: https://hello.eleven.sh

$ curl https://hello.eleven.sh

> Hello World

Still learning Go by the way, so I'm open to any suggestions to improve.
