clover/busybox repository overview

⁠BusyBox docker image

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. The utilities in BusyBox⁠ generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox⁠ provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system.

The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux - BusyBox⁠ is a very good ingredient to craft space-efficient distributions.

This image based on official BusyBox⁠ (v1.37.0) package for Debian.
