26+ ## 🔒 Sandbox System (NEW!)
27+
28+ ### What is Sandboxing?
29+ Sandboxing creates isolated execution environments where applications run independently from the main system. This ensures:
30+ - ** Security** : Applications can't access system files without permission
31+ - ** Isolation** : Each sandbox has its own file system and resources
32+ - ** Resource Control** : Set CPU, memory, and disk limits per sandbox
33+ - ** Easy Management** : Create, start, stop, pause, and delete sandboxes
34+
35+ ### Sandbox Features
36+ - ** 🎨 Templates** : Pre-configured sandbox types (General, Development, Testing, Lightweight, Heavy)
37+ - ** 📊 Real-time Monitoring** : Track CPU, memory, and disk usage
38+ - ** 💻 Sandbox Terminal** : Execute commands within sandbox context
39+ - ** ⚙️ Resource Limits** : Control CPU (%), Memory (MB), and Disk (MB) usage
40+ - ** 📈 Statistics** : View detailed statistics and process information
41+ - ** 🔄 Lifecycle Management** : Start, stop, pause, resume operations
42+
43+ ### Sandbox Templates
44+ 1 . ** General Purpose** - Standard sandbox for everyday tasks (50% CPU, 512MB RAM, 1GB disk)
45+ 2 . ** Development** - Enhanced resources for coding (75% CPU, 1GB RAM, 2GB disk)
46+ 3 . ** Testing** - Isolated environment for safe testing (50% CPU, 512MB RAM, 512MB disk)
47+ 4 . ** Lightweight** - Minimal resources for simple tasks (25% CPU, 256MB RAM, 512MB disk)
48+ 5 . ** Heavy Workload** - Maximum resources for demanding apps (100% CPU, 2GB RAM, 4GB disk)
