runC |
true |
runC is a CLI tool for spawning and running containers according to the OCI specification. The code can be found on Github.
Containers are started as a child process of runC and can be embedded into various other systems without having to run a daemon.
runC is built on libcontainer, the same container technology powering millions of Docker Engine installations.
runC does not force you to have a particular workflow or deployment setup, it only requires a root filesystem and configuration.
