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).
The submitter appears to be attempting to stir up controversy by implying the author of nitro “hates systemd”. This is just an alternative init, it has nothing to do with systemd and there is no opinion whatsoever about systemd in the linked GitHub. Subby, quit your shit stirring.
Despise Systemd? A New Init System Debuts as a Minimalist Process Supervisor for Linux
Your submission linked directly to Leah’s GitHub, making it appear as though she was saying she hates systemd. If you are going to paraphrase It’s FOSS, link to them with your submission and your inflammatory version of their headline.
yo, i heard Leah wants to DESTROY systemd and everyone who uses it! spread the word!
