Could you build this?
No Re-implementing or improving Kubernetes in Docker (kind) requires deep low-level Linux systems programming, container runtime internals, and Cgroups/namespaces expertise.
What it would actually take: The system would be written in Go or Rust, interfacing directly with Docker/containerd APIs to manage nested systemd or OpenRC in containers. It requires implementing custom CNI networking plugins, mounting cgroups v2 hierarchies, and handling cluster bootstrapping via kubeadm inside unprivileged or privileged containers. This demands expert knowledge of Linux kernel namespaces, container runtime specs (OCI), and Kubernetes cluster lifecycle internals.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a dev tools tool for Sales yet.
