Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ask HN: What's the most creative 'useless' program you've ever written?
https://github.com/combust-labs/firebuild
Build firecracker vmms from dockerfiles. Learned a ton, never did anything with it but I want believe it influenced a bunch of people to look deeper into firecracker.
-
My VM is lighter (and safer) than your container
A Dockerfile is just a file with a bunch of commands to execute and get a working "computer". https://github.com/combust-labs/firebuild is fairly aged translation of the Dockerfile to a VM rootfs.

We clone a running VM in 2 seconds
Regarding turning Dockerfiles into a MicroVM: https://gruchalski.com/posts/2021-03-23-introducing-firebuil..., on GitHub: https://github.com/combust-labs/firebuild. This could get you started.

Maybe you need firecracker with something along the lines of https://github.com/combust-labs/firebuild?

Hypervisor for multi-tenant computing, like it should be
I was the one who posted that question and I deleted it because I understood I was asking to compare apple to oranges. Firecracker uses KVM under the hood. With regards to the overhead, sure, there's going to be resources needed but firecracker is pretty good at running VMs will low level overhead. We're talking thousands on a single host.
I've done some fair share of evaluating firecracker for https://github.com/combust-labs/firebuild and the need to provision is red herring. firebuild can run a VM directly from a Dockerfile and Docker image. Fly.io team does something similar. It's basically a fully functional app out of the container within a matter of milliseconds.
What would be nice is to see a direct comparison between your solution and firecracker.

Docker Without Docker
I am working on something like this: https://github.com/combust-labs/firebuild.
From a Dockerfile, it's not as simple without creating an image first.

My Experience Working on the KWOK Project as an LFX Mentee
New cloud native projects: While working on the project, I had the opportunity to learn about other projects too. For example, Kubevirt, Kyverno, Clusterpedia, etc.

Proxmox, CEPH and kubernetes
If you're happy with k8s and longhorn, why add Proxmox as another layer underneath? Consider kubevirt ?

Blog: KWOK: Kubernetes WithOut Kubelet
Docker Desktop runs dockerd in a Linux VM with Apple's hypervisor framework. You can also run containers in a Linux VM with Parallels or VMware Fusion hypervisors. But you can't run VMs inside those VMs as it stands today. This works fine on Intel Macs which means you can't experiment and use KVM - one of the killer features of Linux and things like https://kubevirt.io/
What are some alternatives?
cloud-hypervisor - A Virtual Machine Monitor for modern Cloud workloads. Features include CPU, memory and device hotplug, support for running Windows and Linux guests, device offload with vhost-user and a minimal compact footprint. Written in Rust with a strong focus on security.
harvester - Open source hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) software
firecracker-containerd - firecracker-containerd enables containerd to manage containers as Firecracker microVMs
