My VM is lighter (and safer) than your container
Most should already exist on your mac if you do development... it seems to rely on qemu, unsurprisingly... openjdk as well (probably to support Java out-of-the-box?), imagegick etc.
Took a few minutes to finish installing... the CLI seems to be based on the Docker commands (build, clean, run, 'net create', inspect etc.), some package-manager like commands ('pkg info', 'pkg pull', 'pkg list' etc.), a bunch of "cloud" commands (I suppose that's the non-free part) and "compose" commands just like docker-compose. Interesting stuff.
Not for the parent commenter: the Lua link in the landing page is broken: https://github.com/unikraft/catalog/tree/main/examples/http-...
I tried to run the C hello world example... I get an error, it wants to run Docker?!?! I thought the whole point was to avoid Docker (and containers)??
Here's the log:
i creating ephemeral buildkit container
What are some alternatives?
container-shell - Starts and attaches a sandboxed shell using docker with access to the current or project directory
firebuild - Convenience of containers, security of virtual machines
firecracker-containerd - firecracker-containerd enables containerd to manage containers as Firecracker microVMs
kata-containers - Kata Containers is an open source project and community working to build a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines (VMs) that feel and perform like containers, but provide the workload isolation and security advantages of VMs. https://katacontainers.io/
gvisor - Application Kernel for Containers
kuasar - A multi-sandbox container runtime that provides cloud-native, all-scenario multiple sandbox container solutions.
