Acropolis

Source code in, OCI image out. No Dockerfile, no daemon. A single Rust binary, by Olimpia.

Acropolis takes an app’s source code and returns an OCI image ready to run. It detects the language and framework, downloads verified toolchains and dependencies, compiles, and assembles the image. It is the builder behind Olimpia.

acropolis build ./my-app -t registry.example.com/team/my-app:latest
acropolis build ./my-app --oci image.tar --info info.json
acropolis plan ./my-app

Usage

How it works

No builder image, segmented downloads, parallel layers, portable caches.

Benchmarks

Cold builds, rebuilds, image size and RAM against Docker and Railpack.

Compatibility

Tested against other builders’ published test suites.
