Lightweight Alpine VMs on MacOS

Go Report Card

Create and manage lightweight Alpine VMs on MacOS with:

  • Seamless port forwarding

  • Automatic file sharing

  • Bridged networking

  • aarch64 and x86_64 emulation

Motivation

The goal of this project is to enable MacOS users to:

  1. Easily spin up and manage lightweight Alpine Linux environments.
  2. Use tiny VMs to take advantage of containerisation technologies, including Incus, LXD and Docker.
  3. Build and test software on x86_64 and aarch64 systems.
