Was hoping it allowed my runtime. I have a bunch of scripts in NodeJS, Python 2, C#, etc. I don't care to rewrite them and/or write scripts tied to a weird sandbox runtime.

Any support for docker based workers?

We could but decided against it because we have no way to run those efficiently given our architecture and prefer to support a few languages and ensure we can run them blazing fast than all languages but with no guarantees of performance. In windmill, you have the guarantee to have no cold-start thanks to leveraging the great design of the deno runtime. For python, we had to do a LOT of engineering to make it work well and did not have the bandwidth to do the same for all languages. Ultimately, we could decide that some steps could be slow and it doesn't matter but it wasn't requested enough to prioritize it.

To be clear, the workers can run in docker, but do not run docker jobs.
