Kiri: a Docker-compatible container runtime for three OSes

GitHub banner for the libracoder/kiri repository, showing its name, a short description of the container runtime, a man's portrait, and counts for contributors, issues, discussions, stars, and forks.

Kiri replaces Docker Desktop and OrbStack with a lightweight container runtime for macOS, Windows, and Linux, compatible with the Docker CLI, Compose, and buildx. The repository also describes a native UI and support for Kubernetes clusters and Linux machines.

Its architecture uses a Linux VM and a Rust agent that starts containers through clone3, without runc, a shim, or dockerd. The project publishes startup-time benchmarks against Docker Desktop and OrbStack, along with instructions for reproducing them.
