We have a policy of not using server CPU for processing on lilypond.org,
because it's donated to us at no cost - so I don't think lilybin could be
hosted on the lilypond.org site.

I'm primarily responsible for LilyBin. A year or so ago, Timothy Gu
(copied) and I got LilyPond running in AWS Lambda, which should be able to
handle plenty of traffic. I get 266,667 seconds of free computation time per
month from Amazon. We used 38,094 seconds in January for 18,398 requests,
meaning we should be able to handle—very roughly estimating—100,000 more
requests per month. How many visitors does lilypond.org get?
The LilyBin UI isn't made to be embeddable, but could be made so. I'd
probably recommend just wiring up CodeMirror and PDF.js yourself rather than
trying to show LilyBin in an iframe.
I'll be happy to work with you if you want a LilyBin-powered demo on the
home page!
I love the idea of being able to let visitors try out LP code right there
when browsing the home page. I wonder if a dedicated subdomain (e.g.,
live.lilypond.org) would be more appropriate?
Here's what I'm thinking.
Each LP example in the docs has a real source file associated with it, right?
So,...
1. Put LilyBin functionality at live.lilypond.org
2. Put all the doc's source files in a directory structure that the new site
can access (ideally, through a web-navigate-able directory tree)
3. Place a "Try this live!" link next to each score example in the docs (or
the image hyperlink) that points to the specific file in #2 that the visitor
can play around with (but can't save over), rather than just linking to a plain
text file
This is a wish list, of course, but could be a very cool feature for
new/potential users wanting to get their feet wet.
Best,
Abraham
