Back to FreeBSD: Part 1
If you don't want to use the base system (which docker is NOT the base system on Linux) then Bastille offers a pretty much identical workflow to docker, but built on FreeBSD jails: https://github.com/BastilleBSD/bastille

Jails have a significantly better track record in terms of security.
I can delegate a ZFS dataset to a jail to let the jail manage it.
Do Linux containers have an equivalent to VNET jails yet? With VNET jails I can give the jail its own whole networking stack, so they can run their own firewall and dhcp their own address and everything.

Bocker: Docker implemented in around 100 lines of Bash (2015)
A brother from another mother: https://bastillebsd.org/ Bastille manages jails using shell with many of the same constructs you'd find in docker. I like it over other jail management software in BSD because it has so few dependencies.
