About

LXD is a next generation system container manager. It offers a user experience similar to virtual machines but using Linux containers instead. It's image based with pre-made images available for a wide number of Linux distributions and is built around a very powerful, yet pretty simple, REST API. To get a better idea of what LXD is and what it does, you can try it online! Then if you want to run it locally, take a look at our getting started guide. The LXD project was founded and is currently led by Canonical Ltd with contributions from a range of other companies and individual contributors. The core of LXD is a privileged daemon which exposes a REST API over a local unix socket as well as over the network (if enabled). Clients, such as the command line tool provided with LXD itself then do everything through that REST API. It means that whether you're talking to your local host or a remote server, everything works the same way.

About

CLI tool for spawning and running containers according to the OCI specification. runc only supports Linux. It must be built with Go version 1.17 or higher. In order to enable seccomp support, you will need to install libseccomp on your platform. runc supports optional build tags for compiling support of various features, with some of them enabled by default. runc currently supports running its test suite via Docker. To run the suite just type make test. There are additional make targets for running the tests outside of a container but this is not recommended as the tests are written with the expectation that they can write and remove anywhere. You can run a specific test case by setting the TESTFLAGS variable. You can run a specific integration test by setting the TESTPATH variable. You can run a specific rootless integration test by setting the ROOTLESS_TESTPATH variable. Please note that runc is a low-level tool not designed with an end-user in mind.
