Have you had customers where they needed like macOS specific VMs or like Windows specific VMs?
Not yet.
There are like many technologies in the world that only work on specific types of machines, right?
If you're building a .NET application that has to run on Windows or like, you know, maybe more commonly if you want to build iOS or macOS.
The fundamental architecture we do, because we do the separation, it does support.
But the actual work in progress is happening right now on these.
Another thing that we've actually recently added support now for, it's in beta, is doing Android development.
To do that, we needed to support, I think, nested virtualization within our machines.
Because the VM itself is a virtualized Firecracker instance.
And then...
you have to then run another Android emulator inside.
And there's weird performance issues, which is why it's still in beta.
We have to think through these problems.
But it unlocks a lot for anyone who wants to do Android development.
Yeah, I think that when people think about the ability of an AI to run your app and test it, I think they actually over-index on the computer use part of it.
Because computer use, in my mind, is the literal, okay, you know what button you want to click.
Can you emit the right coordinates to go click that button?
I think testing is actually a really interesting problem-solving challenge for these AIs.
Because if you wanted to do arbitrary testing, imagine you make a change that spans the front-end and the back-end, maybe even some other, even more deeply nested service.
To actually test that change, we have to reason through how do you first run these applications to all work share with each other with the right version of the code, then how do I trigger the feature or how do I make the thing actually happen?
