> It's build-a-bear for VMMs :)

Yeah!

Nearly everybody says they want a simple and minimal solution in this space, but everybody means different things when they say that. For example, in Lambda we do everything at the block level, and intentionally don't want to share filesystems (one reason is that it exposes the host kernel's complex FS code to the guest). But you want filesystems, and that's cool.

Instead of having a box that does everything, with the associated size and attack surface, rust-vmm moves that feature binding to build time. It's slightly less convenient, but much more powerful.

(I'm the guy in the video on the linked page, but this is just my opinion, nothing official)
