# Quickstart

The fastest end-to-end workflow is:

- Define a template in code.

- Build it once.

- Launch sandboxes from the returned template ID.

JavaScript & TypeScript

Python

```
import { Sandbox, Template } from "novita-sandbox"

const template = Template().fromImage("python:3.12")

const build = await Template.build(template, "my-python-template", {
cpuCount: 2,
memoryMB: 1024,
})

console.log(build.templateId)
console.log(build.buildId)

const sandbox = await Sandbox.create(build.templateId)
const result = await sandbox.commands.run("python --version")

console.log(result.stdout)

await sandbox.kill()
```
