After more than a year using Karton regularly, I released version 1.0 with the last few features I was missing for my use case.

Karton is a tool which can transparently run Linux programs on a different Linux distribution, on macOS, or on a different architecture.
By using Docker, Karton manages semi-persistent containers with easy to use automatic folder sharing and lots of small details which make the experience smooth. You shouldn’t notice you are using command line programs from a different OS or distro.

If you are interested, check the Karton website.
