🪡 Spindle gains a new engine: microvm 🪡
You can now:
- build docker containers in CI
- run sidecar services like postgres, redis for integration tests
- use non-nixos base images, such as alpine

Build your own minimal BSD UNIX system with smolBSD project which aims at creating a minimal NetBSD virtual machine that's able to boot and start a service in less than a second. Previous NetBSD installation is not required, using the provided tools the microvm can be created from NetBSD/Linux/MacOS

smolBSD Builds On The NetBSD-MicroVM Kernel For Booting To Service VMs In Milliseconds
A new BSD distribution I only learned about for the first time this weekend is smolBSD, a project built atop the netbsd-MICROVM kernel coming with NetBSD 11 for providing insanely fast booting micro-VMs intended for micro-services and similar environments...
