24 alternatives to The Product Sandbox
Hi HN, After 15 years in product management, I realized there’s nowhere for Product Managers to actually practice, most learning focuses on theory, not doing.

Kshitij and Rahul here. We're building Playground, an open-source sandbox that lets your non-technical teams prototype directly on production codebases, without bugging you (developers) to spin up and maintain another repo.
