  • runj

    runj is an experimental, proof-of-concept OCI-compatible runtime for FreeBSD jails.

    I think you mean that it's a ZFS volume? Although it should be possible to export a filesystem to a guest over NFS (or I guess 9p), but I haven't run into a lot of discussion or gotten around to testing it myself...

    > It would be really cool if there were tools that brought them in line with docker, in terms of easy deployment and provisioning of new jails/vms. If I didn't have so many damn project ideas already...

    My dream would be to see https://github.com/samuelkarp/runj polished and docker+containerd+runj made to work as the way to run the docker frontend with jails as the backend.
