  10. kata-containers

    Kata Containers is an open source project and community working to build a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines (VMs) that feel and perform like containers, but provide the workload isolation and security advantages of VMs. https://katacontainers.io/

    Project mention: Comparing 3 Docker container runtimes - Runc, gVisor and Kata Containers | dev.to | 2024-10-29

    I bet the first thing you think that it is a bug. There is an issue on GitHub where someone thought the same. The fact is that Kata containers are different and there are Limitations. The first I noticed too, that there is no way to share process or network namespaces between Docker containers. The fact that you cannot use the process namespace or network namespace of the host is easily understandable because we have a VM and not just a host kernel isolating our processes.

  11. VirtualBuddy

    Virtualize macOS 12 and later on Apple Silicon, VirtualBuddy is a virtual machine GUI for macOS M1, M2, M3

    Project mention: macOS in Docker Container | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-07-30

    Have you run into Viable https://eclecticlight.co/virtualisation-on-apple-silicon/ or VirtualBuddy https://github.com/insidegui/VirtualBuddy ? I think at least Viable uses macOS' "lightweight virtualization", so I think it has some limitations
