A hands-on workshop that teaches how Linux containers work by guiding participants to rebuild Docker from scratch in Python, level by level. It covers namespaces, cgroups, chroot/pivot_root, and capabilities using a custom C extension exposing raw syscalls.
Use cases
- learn how Linux containers work internally
- understand namespaces and cgroups hands-on
- rebuild Docker from scratch as an exercise
- prepare for a containers workshop or training session
- teach container internals to a DevOps team
- study syscalls like chroot and pivot_root in practice
When to choose
- you want deep, practical understanding of container internals rather than just using Docker
- you are running or attending a hands-on workshop on Linux containers
- you learn best by building things from scratch
When to avoid
- you need a production container runtime or Docker replacement
- you want a quick tutorial rather than a multi-level guided workshop
- you are not comfortable with low-level Linux system calls or C-extended Python
