Simple ideas. Solid engineering.
⚡️ Part 1 clearly struck a nerve. Part 2 is out! https://hypha.pub/back-to-freebsd-part-2
Jailrun's built-in mesh network opens up some truly fantastic possibilities. Like spinning up a private Matrix server on your laptop, accessible to your peers worldwide. No domain or cloud, just a few simple configs.
🏠️ Jailrun Hub just moved into https://hub.jail.run, right next to https://jail.run. Browse and use ready-made playbooks for your jails.
Jailrun 0.8.0 is out ⚡️ Mesh networking graduates from experimental to official (with a public relay at relay.jail.run), jrun status gets a full rework with `--live` monitoring and `--show` for granular output. Docs, polish, and rough edges smoothed. Learn more at https://jail.run.
😈 Jailrun 0.7.0 is out, bringing long-awaited snapshot support. Create, list, rollback, and delete jail snapshots effortlessly. Learn more: https://jail.run/tutorials/snapshots/
😈 A great project deserves great documentation. Jailrun is now live on its own domain: https://jail.run
We wanted the docs to feel as solid as the project itself, so the new site brings together everything you need to get started, explore examples, and dive into the full reference.
😈 Jailrun 0.6.0 is out: bridged VNET jails, experimental #Yggdrasil mesh networking, and #FreeBSD host support. Big milestone!
😈 Jailrun is moving fast!
Our open-source project for orchestrating FreeBSD jails has just received a major update.
The latest version brings the kind of modern CLI experience you’d expect in 2026 — interactive shell, command autocomplete, and a polished look and feel.

Thanks to the @FreeBSDFoundation for supporting the continued development of FreeBSD, and to the maintainers of #bastilleBSD, #ansible, #qemu, and #monit for the wonderful tools.
