Port 8080 is now available in Vercel Sandboxes

By Steven Van ·

Vercel Sandbox frees up port 8080 for ingress by moving its internal controller process to port 23456.

Port 8080 can now be opened and bound as an ingress domain in Vercel Sandboxes. The port was previously reserved for the sandbox's own controller process, which has moved to port 23456 to free it up. Developers can now run a server on 8080, such as python3 -m http.server 8080, and reach it through sandbox.domain(8080), as shown in the updated documentation.
