The Future of Development: Running Firecracker MicroVMs on Your MacBook Pro M3

Im not really sure what you are comparing here.

* You predownload the "image" which is the part that takes long in docker * You also run inside of `lima` which is already a virtualized layer

What is the thing that is faster? I do love microvms and firecracker, but this article makes no sense to me.

Sadly an AI written post

Genuinely curious how you could tell

There is a GitHub repo (https://github.com/yashdiq/firecracker-lima-vm) including instructions and videos demoing the setup.

This is most certainly not AI.

very cool! i have been waiting for a compelling answer for running systems in isolated VMs on my machine and this is a very good approach! thank you for sharing!
