• Alpine Linux project

  Small. Simple. Secure.

  Alpine Linux is a security-oriented, lightweight Linux distribution based on musl libc and busybox.

• musl libc

  musl is an implementation of the C standard library built on top of the Linux system call API, including interfaces defined in the base language standard, POSIX, and widely agreed-upon extensions.

• busybox

  BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable.

  It provides replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc.
