Running Firecracker inside Docker

Question

Is there any way to run Firecracker inside Docker container.

I tried the basic networking in firecracker although having containerized firecracker can have many benefits

1. No hurdle to create and manage overlay network and attach
2. Deploy in Docker swarm and in Kubernetes
3. No need to clean IPTables/Network rules etc.

You can use kata-containers to simplify
