Indeed, but this new niche project is trying to provide a streamlined setup. Upon closer inspection of the toolchains, for Node, Rust, Go, and Python, it shows that it tries to automatically configure them.
This sort of wrapping setup of VMs in a higher level project is encouraged by BinSquare, the creator of smol machines, as recently on X he has been touting its embeddability.
