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.

Windows Subsystem For Linux a.k.a. WSL 1.0.0 released
Yeah, You need Hyper-V to run basic Docker configuration on Windows, I just simplified this too much I guess.
The end result is that if you run Docker on Windows with Hyper-V alone it's using Window filesystem and then "translating" this for Docker therefore making the whole process of accessing the files incredibly slow.
I used to work with docker using Docker Kinematic (https://github.com/docker/kitematic) in the past, which basically was a Virtual box with Docker installed inside this VM, and since the VM was some kind of Linux, it worked reasonably well.
The same seems to be the case when using WSL2 - you run VM and Docker inside this VM, removing the file sync/translation part out of the equation, resulting in speed boots.

Auttomatic Open Source Docker Open source Those are two i can think of that use those technologies, read the “contribution” part on github. If you search “open source projects” and the technologies you know, you’ll find even more. :)

What am I missing out by not using Docker?
Kitematic runs on Linux: https://github.com/docker/kitematic/releases, and so does Dockstation: https://dockstation.io

Colima k8s nix setup
You can run a virtual machine (e.g. lima) from inside a nix-shell, exactly as you would do with a regular shell.

Ask HN: Startup Devs -What's your biggest pain while managing cloud deployments?
for others similarly curious, here's an example of the thing: https://github.com/noop-inc/template-java-spring-boot/blob/m...
they seem to be using the excellent lima <https://github.com/lima-vm/lima#readme> for booting on macOS; I run colima for its containerd and k8s support but strongly recommend both projects $(brew install lima colima)
- macOS 14.4 causes JVM crashes
- Lima launches Linux virtual machines for macOS

Simulate an Ubuntu-like VM inside macOS
Lima is what I use as well. It's quick and easy to just fire up a VM with default settings, but also very easy to configure with different file sharing options, port forwarding, different linux distributions, etc. (their examples are also pretty good IMO [1]).
In particular I use it to run an amd64 VM, which I need to run a stubborn service for work that doesn't run on arm CPUs.

Why are Apple Silicon VMs so different?
Lima (1) is a project that packages Linux distros for MacOS and executes them via qemu in the backend. Maybe you could solve your problem by launching one of their vms and inspecting the command line it generates. You might find an option you were missing.

Lima: Linux Virtual Machines on macOS
Github: https://github.com/lima-vm/lima
Lima wraps QEMU in a simple CLI, with neat features for container users, such as filesystem sharing and automatic localhost port forwarding, as well as DNS and proxy propagation for enterprise networks. Rancher Desktop wraps Lima with k3s integration and GUI.
