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.

Automate Project Environments with Devbox and Direnv
Very nice. I'll def. check it out.
I've created https://github.com/jrz/container-shell myself, which has a similar mindset, but is based on docker and is just a single bash script.

My VM is lighter (and safer) than your container
Not really, you'd still need a proper chroot / etc.

Lcl.host: fast, easy HTTPS in your local dev environment
Just use orbstack, it gives you https and hostnames.
Shameless plug: https://github.com/jrz/container-shell in combination with orbstack. Isolated dev environment, easy to use, local tools, https

Over 100k Infected Repos Found on GitHub
Check out https://github.com/jrz/container-shell it is one of the use cases. Not a VM but a docker container

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.

Podman 4.0.0

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.
