alt Hacker NewsI am building a virtual machine that starts as fast as containers and can be made portable and easy to use like containers.
free, open source -> https://github.com/smol-machines/smolvm
I worked with firecracker a lot back in the day and realized it was a pain to use. And containers had a lot of gotchas too.
Since sandboxing is all the rage now - I think it'd be a better infra primitive than firecracker that works locally/remote and etc.

This is very cool. Would love to chat with you.
I’m working on https://coasts.dev.
I’ve been thinking a lot about the light vm side lately but it’s not an area we are going to attack ourselves. I think there’s a really good pairing between what we’re working on.
