I am building a virtual machine that starts as fast as containers and can be made portable and easy to use like containers.

free, open source -> https://github.com/smol-machines/smolvm

I worked with firecracker a lot back in the day and realized it was a pain to use. And containers had a lot of gotchas too.

Since sandboxing is all the rage now - I think it'd be a better infra primitive than firecracker that works locally/remote and etc.
