Bitnami Stacksmith vs Dumb-init: What are the differences?

Developers describe Bitnami Stacksmith as "Create custom container images in minutes". Pick your favorite development environments ready-to-run including: Python, Java, PHP, Go, Ruby and Node. Layer on the web frameworks you need to kick-start your project including: Symfony, Express, Rails, and Django. On the other hand, Dumb-init is detailed as "A minimal init system for Linux containers, by Yelp". dumb-init runs as PID 1, acting like a simple init system. It launches a single process and then proxies all received signals to a session rooted at that child process. Since your actual process is no longer PID 1, when it receives signals from dumb-init, the default signal handlers will be applied, and your process will behave as you would expect. If your process dies, dumb-init will also die, taking care to clean up any other processes that might still remain.

Bitnami Stacksmith and Dumb-init can be primarily classified as "Container" tools.
