I believe apple is making OCI-compliant containers which is written in swift. I hope this helps the containerization in FreeBSD.

- bartekrutkowski 11mo agoIn what sense? FreeBSD had containers before anyone heard about Docker ;)
- righthand 11mo agoYeah talk about reinventing the wheel so Linux people don’t have to learn a slightly different system (one that is ironically easier to use and better organized than Oci containers).
- Gud 11mo agoJails are not containers.
- yjftsjthsd-h 11mo agoBy what definition would LXC be containers and jails not be?
- irusensei 11mo agoJails are great but are not OCI-compliant.
- jen20 11mo agoSo? They predate a standard which was basically extracted from Docker.
- pstuart 11mo agoI think the OCI factor being noted here is the packaging not the containerized runtime.
- bartekrutkowski 10mo agoThen Podman for FreeBSD exists for a while too.
- irusensei 10mo agoBut it relied on Linux virtual machines didn't it?
- fridder 11mo agoJust this week the foundation dropped an article about OCI compliant containeraztion: https://freebsdfoundation.org/blog/oci-containers-on-freebsd/ https://freebsdfoundation.org/blog/oci-containers-on-freebsd...
- jonhohle 11mo agoThis is awesome. I have an Omada container running on my desktop that would be great to move to my FreeBSD server.
- irusensei 11mo agoThats cool I knew those were coming but the most interesting thing in here is that it seems to be running the Linux images under the Linuxlator (hence he had to enable the linux service) as opposed to creating a Linux VM like the other operating system do. Pretty cool!
