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.

Creating Kubernetes Cluster With CRI-O
It is an open-source, community-driven project which supports OCI-based container registries. It is being maintained by contributors working in Red Hat, Intel, etc. It also comes with a monitoring program known as conmon. Conmon is an OCI container runtime monitor, which makes the communication between CRI-O and runc for a single container.

Which alternative for slirp4netns in rootless containers is better?
When considering using socket activation it's good to know that socket-activation has the advantage that you can create on-demand services. And in the future you might be able to do container image upgrades without loosing an active TCP connection https://github.com/containers/conmon/issues/393 (Right now it's just a feature request that I wrote).

Docker is dead?!? Podman - an alternative tool?
This was a wrong assumption. Podman directly uses runC or crun instead of containerd using a technology named conmon. Some more useful information can be found in this article.

Podman: A Daemonless Container Engine
Well, "daemonless" is kind of marketing - there is still this daemon-per-container 'conmon' thing https://github.com/containers/conmon and I don't get why it is needed because 1) who actually needs to re-attach anyway? 2) container's streams are already properly handled by whatever supervisor (e.g. systemd). You can't disable conmon and I'm not sure if its usage is not hardcoded throughout the codebase.
I would very much like to use Podman as a finally proper container launcher in production (non-FAANG scale - at which you maybe start to need k8s), but having an unnecessary daemon moving part in thousands lines of C makes me frown so far.

The Road To Kubernetes: How Older Technologies Add Up
Kubernetes on the backend used to utilize docker for much of its container runtime solutions. One of the modular features of Kubernetes is the ability to utilize a Container Runtime Interface or CRI. The problem was that Docker didn't really meet the spec properly and they had to maintain a shim to translate properly. Instead users could utilize the popular containerd or cri-o runtimes. These follow the Open Container Initiative or OCI's guidelines on container formats.

macOS Containers v0.0.1
This is a failed attempt to upstream part of containerd changes: https://github.com/containerd/containerd/pull/8789
Other part of containerd changes waits for gods-know-what: https://github.com/containerd/containerd/pull/9054
But I haven't gave up yet.

Kubernetes Setup With WSL Control Plane and Raspberry Pi Workers
containerd is required by kubernetes to handle containers on its behalf. A big thanks to the HostAfrica blog for the information on setting containerd up for debain. So the containerd install will need to happen on both the WSL2 instance and the Raspberry Pis. For WSL2 you can just install containerd directly:

Bingo of the Kubernetes problems I found myself debugging over the past weeks. AMA :p
The context deadline exceeded: unknown is also in containerd, and is a known problem.

Hi peeps, I am getting error installing docker. Now let me give you some context. I was trying to install docker on the google colab notebook. As google colab is ubuntu under the hood. So I just followed the docker linux terminal installation commands.

Docker Explained - Again
Docker Desktop adds a bunch of stuff to simplify local development and that’s why it has a larger memory footprint. You don’t use that when deploying but something like https://containerd.io/.
What are some alternatives?
podman - Podman: A tool for managing OCI containers and pods.
runc - CLI tool for spawning and running containers according to the OCI specification
cri-o - Open Container Initiative-based implementation of Kubernetes Container Runtime Interface
crun - A fast and lightweight fully featured OCI runtime and C library for running containers
Moby - The Moby Project - a collaborative project for the container ecosystem to assemble container-based systems
docker - Docker - the open-source application container engine
podman-compose - a script to run docker-compose.yml using podman
distribution-spec - OCI Distribution Specification
colima - Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup
go - The Go programming language
sysbox - An open-source, next-generation "runc" that empowers rootless containers to run workloads such as Systemd, Docker, Kubernetes, just like VMs.
