    Fixing Chrome’s “No usable sandbox!” During Web Requests with Browsershot and Puppeteer

    After getting Chrome up and running as the www-data user for Laravel workers, I tried to generate a PDF during a web request and got Chrome's "No usable sandbox!" error. Uh-oh. Chrome needs a sandbox, it is strongly discouraged to run without one. So, how to get a sandbox up and running?

    Ich baute gestern Nacht, weil es mir keine Ruhe lies, noch ein kleines Package, mit dem man Browsershot von Spatie benutzen kann, ohne Puppeteer und Node und den ganzen Schlonz im App Image haben zu müssen. Es nutzt außerdem zenika/alpine-chrome als "kleines" (nur 500MB, hahaha) Chrome-Image.
