Open-source alternatives to Photon

MotionEyeOS is a dedicated operating system designed to transform a single board computer into a video surveillance station. It provides a centralized environment for monitoring and recording multiple video feeds. The system enables remote camera management through a unified web interface, allowing for the control and configuration of networked security cameras. It supports automated video recording based on motion detection to monitor specific areas without requiring constant manual recording. The software incorporates a Debian-based root filesystem and a Python-based backend to orchestrate

The LK kernel is an SMP-aware kernel designed for small systems ported to a variety of platforms and cpu architectures.

LXD is a unified platform for managing both system containers and virtual machines through a single REST API and command-line interface. It provides a programmatic HTTP interface for controlling the full lifecycle of instances, enabling automation and integration with external tools. The system runs unprivileged containers with per-instance UID/GID mappings, seccomp filters, and AppArmor profiles for kernel-level isolation, while supporting multiple storage backends including directory, Btrfs, LVM, ZFS, Ceph, LINSTOR, and TrueNAS through a unified driver interface. The platform distinguishes

NodeOS is an operating system that boots a Linux kernel with Node.js running as the primary userspace, replacing traditional shell utilities with JavaScript execution. Every npm package is treated as a native system command, making hundreds of thousands of packages directly executable at the OS level. The operating system is built inside Docker containers using a reproducible pipeline that generates ext2 filesystem images, with the ability to conditionally disable KVM for systems without hardware virtualization. It mounts a persistent usersfs partition for user home directories, preserving ch
