Very nice! Quite a coincidence, but the NPM disaster also prompted me to build litterbox.work as a possible solution. It is a very different approach though.

Interesting project.

This won't work on Mac, right?

Of course not. But it is not needed, as Mac users are not interested in data safety.

Why not just use the standard Linux tool bubblewrap?

The main reason is that in addition to sandboxing, I also wanted something similar to dev-containers where I can have a reproducible development environment. I guess that can also be achieved with Bubblewrap, but when you want to run containers anyway, it seems silly to not just use Podman.

Unfortunately not since it is very much designed for Linux. I imagine it should work fine inside a Linux VM on Mac though.
