kudu: a Rust TUI for managing Linux VMs without libvirt

kudu is a Rust TUI for creating and managing VMs on Linux: it drives qemu directly (x86_64/aarch64/riscv64) without libvirt, positioning itself as an alternative to virt-manager and GNOME Boxes. The repository was created in late July 2026 and stood at 59 stars at review time, with binary releases and cloudinit support. Surfaced through the Lobsters front page (25 entries in the current feed).

Features and positioning come from the project README and a repository snapshot, not an independent review; the project is about a month old with 59 stars, ranking on Lobsters is community attention and is not proof of sustained maintenance or maturity.
