Kleene: A Docker-like Container Manager for FreeBSD
2025-02-18
Kleene is a container management platform built specifically for FreeBSD, bringing the familiar concepts of Docker while leveraging FreeBSD's native tools and philosophy. Following the KISS principle, it uses FreeBSD's jails, ZFS, and PF to simplify application deployment, maintenance, and upgrades. It features a client-server architecture with Klee (Python client) communicating with Kleened (Elixir server). Kleene offers a streamlined way to build, run, and manage containerized applications with transparency and control. While familiar to Docker users, it also lowers the barrier to entry for FreeBSD newcomers.
