Thank you, I appreciate that!
I actually agonized over whether to include this particular one-liner, because of the risk of perceived self-promotion. In the end I decided to include it, because I actually used it, and I found it actually useful for anyone who wants to try Kernel with a one-liner. I made sure to not include a link to my project, to keep my karma in balance :)
I've been a fan of unikernels for a long time (we acquired the original Unikernel company at Docker), and I have to say applying it to browsers is genius. Now I'm surprised the unikernel community hasn't focused on this application sooner.

- avsm 2y agoAs the mentioned acquiree, I agree :-) > I'm surprised the unikernel community hasn't focused on this application sooner. There just wasn’t a compelling usecase before agents to need a serverless browser. And Chromium is basically an OS-in-a-box already, and Unikraft has now matured enough to supply the unikernel scaffolding to link it all together (coordinated by Dagger, it seems!)
