IZA

iza is tiny container runtime (like Docker)

root@joey:/home/joey/workspace/iza# ./bin/iza run alpine /bin/sh
Running Container...

/ # cat /etc/os-release  | grep NAME=
NAME="Alpine Linux"
PRETTY_NAME="Alpine Linux v3.19"
/ # 

I was learning how conatiner works, Turn outs its just chroot and syscalls

although this is tiny and not OCI compilent,it's still pretty powerfull

you can run nginx with (no port mapping required using host network)

Build

make all
## run

./bin/iza run hello-wrold
