Run any VM anywhere -- bootstrap BSD, Illumos, and Linux guests with QEMU.

anyvm boots a prebuilt BSD, Illumos, Linux, Hurd or Plan 9 guest under QEMU with one command. It downloads the image, configures firmware, ssh, folder sync and port forwarding for that guest on that architecture, then drops you into a shell or runs your command and exits. anyvm drives QEMU but does not bundle it, so QEMU is declared as a package dependency and winget installs it first. Pass --skip-dependencies to install anyvm on its own and supply QEMU yourself.
