kin
We are all of the same roots.
Kin is a project that harnesses the power of Docker to give developers access to other distros without having to dual boot or run a virtual machine!
Getting Started install:
./install.sh
create a new container:
kin create ubuntu newcontainer
run said container:
kin run newcontainer
Kin [ mode ]:
- create [ distro base ] [ container name ]
- run [ container name ]
Distro bases avaialable:
| Distro | Name |
|---|---|
| Ubuntu | ubuntu |
| Arch Linux | arch-linux |
The default password for the root user and the user is kin.
(Its only been tested on ubuntu systems)

- Makes a user with sudo priviliges
- A permenent filesystem
- Ability to access the filesystem of the container from the host machine
- Ability to give the container a host name
- Running multiple instances of the same container
