Show HN: Lume – OS Lightweight CLI/API for macOS/Linux VMs on Apple Silicon

1. lume

   🔥🪰 Static site generator for Deno (by lumeland)

   

   Lume[1] is also a static site generator for Deno JavaScript Engine [2]. Indeed it is impossible to find a 4-letter name that doesn't clash using the Latin alphabet and that sounds like a name.

3. lume

   2 4 2,542 7.9 Python

   Discontinued Create and run high-performance macOS and Linux VMs on Apple Silicon, with built-in support for AI agents. [Moved to: https://github.com/trycua/cua]

   

4. ish

   3 168 20,270 7.8 C

   Linux shell for iOS

   

   You can, with ish (https://ish.app). It is a bit slow though and doesn't support the newest releases. (Well and by default it runs Alpine instead of Debian)

5. UTM

   Virtual machines for iOS and macOS

   

6. qemu

   5 1 1,916 9.7 Shell

   QEMU in a Docker container. (by qemus)

   

   - It is more of a container-oriented way of spinning up Linux VMs. We're still debating whether to go in that direction with lume, but the good news is that it would mostly require tweaking the hooks to expose lume’s core to adopt the containerd standard. I’d love to hear your thoughts - would you find it useful to have a Docker-like interface for starting macOS workloads? Similarly to: https://github.com/qemus/qemu-docker

7. pylume

   6 4 53 7.1 Python

   Discontinued A lightweight Python library to create, run and manage macOS and Linux virtual machines (VMs) natively on Apple Silicon.

   

   - Still many dependencies on QEMU, which doesn't play well with Apple silicon - while we opted to support only M chips (80-90% of the market cap today) by relying on the latest Apple Virtualization.Framework bits.

   On Tart:

   - We share some similarities when it comes to tart's command-line interface. We extend it and make it more accessible to different frameworks and languages with our local server option (lume serve). We have also an interface for python today: https://github.com/trycua/pylume

   Name clash with the not very well known Lua library, you should strongly consider changing the name https://github.com/rxi/lume
