Fuchsia is a new operating system from Google, with a key focus on its component framework. Similar to container solutions like Docker on Linux, Fuchsia components fetch content addressed blobs from the network and assemble them into isolated filesystem structures. They then launch processes with these directories as roots. The most intriguing aspect is where Fuchsia and Linux-based solutions differ, leading to unique strengths in each system. This discussion will explore these divergences in detail. Check out Fuchsia’s source code, code review, and getting started page for more information.
