tiny but flexible init system and process supervisor - leahneukirchen/nitro

cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/36342010

Nitro is a tiny process supervisor that also can be used as pid 1 on Linux.

There are four main applications it is designed for:

  • As init for a Linux machine for embedded, desktop or server purposes
  • As init for a Linux initramfs
  • As init for a Linux container (Docker/Podman/LXC/Kubernetes)
  • As unprivileged supervision daemon on POSIX systems

Nitro is configured by a directory of scripts, defaulting to /etc/nitro (or the first command line argument).

    What’s the point of all of these init systems if all we ever get are systemd services? You have to manually supervise all services if you’rw not using systemd which is really annoying.
