There is an inherit problem with Google Cloud Storage site hosting on GCP, which is that to enable HTTPS you must put a load balancer in front of the storage bucket. For small static websites with low amounts of traffic, adding a load balancer can get expensive quick (upwards of 20$ per month)! This is where bgcs-site-proxy comes in handy.
BGCS Site Proxy Let me start with saying that for most cases of static website hosting HTTPS is absolutely not a requirement, it is still a good look for modern websites in 2024.
The goal of the Bytegolf Compiler is to take untrusted user code snippets, run them in a secure environment, and return the output to the client. This post will cover the architecture, usage, and future for the Bytegolf Compiler.
All the code for this post is available at the bg-compiler Github Repo.
Why? Bytegolf started as a code game similar to Code Golf, with the goal of adding more dimensions instead of solely code length like CPU, Memory, and time.
