After nearly two years of development, nerdctl finally reached v1.0.0 🤓 .
A huge thanks to more than 80 contributors, 4,600 stargazers, and an uncountable number of users, for making this possible! 🎉

Also, Lima joined the CNCF Sandbox recently to popularize containerd/nerdctl for Mac users 🎉
Lima v0.13.0 will be released very soon with nerdctl v1.0.0.

Quick start

Rootful

$ sudo systemctl enable --now containerd
$ sudo nerdctl run -d --name nginx -p 80:80 nginx:alpine

Rootless

$ containerd-rootless-setuptool.sh install
$ nerdctl run -d --name nginx -p 8080:80 nginx:alpine

Enabling cgroup v2 is highly recommended for rootless mode, see https://rootlesscontaine.rs/getting-started/common/cgroup2/ .

The binaries were built automatically on GitHub Actions.
