Lume

We just open-sourced Lume - a tool we built after hitting walls with existing virtualization options on Apple Silicon. No GUI, no complex stacks - just a single binary that lets you spin up macOS or Linux VMs via CLI or API. Why we built Lume: - Run native macOS VMs in 1 command, using Apple Virtualization.Framework: `lume run macos-sequoia-vanilla:latest` - Prebuilt images on https://ghcr.io/trycua (macOS, Ubuntu on ARM) - API server to manage VMs programmatically `POST /lume/vms` - A python SDK on github.com/trycua/pylume Run prebuilt macOS images in just 1 step: lume run macos-sequoia-vanilla:latest How to Install: brew tap trycua/lume brew install lume You can also download the `lume.pkg.tar.gz` archive from the latest release https://github.com/trycua/lume/releases, extract it, and install the package manually. Local API Server: `lume` exposes a local HTTP API server that listens on `http://localhost:3000/lume`, enabling automated management of VMs. lume serve For detailed API documentation, please refer to API Reference(https://github.com/trycua/lume/blob/main/docs/API-Reference....). HN devs - would love raw feedback on the API design and whether this solves your Apple Silicon VM pain points. What would make you replace UTM/Multipass/Docker Desktop with this?
