crun

We have hosted the application crun in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about crun:

A fast and low-memory footprint OCI Container Runtime fully written in C. While most of the tools used in the Linux containers ecosystem are written in Go, I believe C is a better fit for a lower-level tool like container runtime. runc, the most used implementation of the OCI runtime specs written in Go, re-execs itself and uses a module written in C for setting up the environment before the container process starts. crun aims to be also usable as a library that can be easily included in programs without requiring an external process for managing OCI containers.

Features:

• Low-memory footprint OCI Container Runtime fully written in C
• Documentation available
• Examples available
• Crun is faster than runc and has a much lower memory footprint
• Python is needed only by libocispec to generate the C parser at build time
• Shared Libraries

Programming Language: C.
