Kiri – The Modern Container Runtime

Kiri is a new container runtime that claims to be 8 times faster than Docker Desktop, running Docker containers with a single daemon while maintaining compatibility with existing Docker CLI, Compose, and API commands. The tool is currently in beta across Mac, Windows, and Linux, offering additional features like Kubernetes cluster creation, Linux virtual machines, and public container sharing, while consuming minimal system resources. Users can migrate their existing images, volumes, and containers from Docker Desktop or OrbStack to Kiri.
