RancherOS if you're looking to use something heavily tested but it's got a few weird features like most of the OS also being in containers. If you want something light to play with and get a vanilla docker experience, your best bet is likely Boot2Docker with Portainer.

The existing RancherOS is no longer being maintained, you probably shouldn't be using it anymore: https://rancher.com/docs/os/v1.x/en/support/ https://rancher.com/docs/os/v1.x/en/support/ Rancher is working on a new version.

  News to me! Apparently I haven't used it in quite some time.

  Hasn't 2.x been released for a long time now?

    Really? I loved the original RancherOS, would love to see the new version!

      I think I'm confusing Rancher "proper" and RancherOS, sorry. https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases/tag/v2.7.1 https://github.com/rancher/rancher/releases/tag/v2.7.1

When I last used Portainer on my home setup, the support for configuration-as-code deployment seemed pretty experimental— basically you could roll out a docker-compose config from a URL or upload as a one-off effort, but IIRC it had no ability to track that URL for changes, or update an already-deployed container set to a new configuration. I think you couldn't even give it a URL requiring authentication maybe? All of this left me feeling like the devs had different goals than I did as a user. But the current iteration seems like k8s/helm are first-class features now, so yeah, should definitely look again.
