Really. Don't worry.
arm32v6/armel, RPi2 & RPi3: arm32v7/armhf, RPi4 & RPi5: arm64/aarch64) and x86_64 (Intel/AMD-based) Linux / macOS / Windows WSLdocker run --detach --rm --name="vlmcsd" --publish="1688:1688/tcp" bridgehead/vlmcsd
or more concise:
docker run -d -p 1688:1688 bridgehead/vlmcsd
vlmcsd-specific switches after the image name, like:a server running in the foreground with additional switches:
docker run -p 1688:1688 bridgehead/vlmcsd /vlmcsd -D -d -e -v
a client that contacts the above server at some ip:
docker run --rm bridgehead/vlmcsd /vlmcs 192.168.0.1
or get help with:
docker run --rm bridgehead/vlmcsd /vlmcsd --help
or
docker run --rm bridgehead/vlmcsd /vlmcs --help
This version of vlmcs/vlmcsd should run on basically any Raspberry Pi or x86_64-based Linux (Intel/AMD) distro.
With 2,5 MB compressed size (depending on the CPU architecture), it's smol.
Uncompressed, it takes around 5-8 MB, only including the alpine base image and the two binaries vlmcs & vlmcsd. Still smol.
It uses 256 KB of RAM when running as a server. Tiny.
Without any parameters, the container starts vlmcsd in _ server mode _, waiting for connections from clients.
Nothing to configure. It just works.

Note that the RPi1/2, aka arm32v6 aka armel image explicitly requires the alpine release v3.12. Versions after that have different requirements (esp. time64). See here for more: https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Release_Notes_for_Alpine_3.13.0
Alpine v3.12 is essentially the last version to be usable on old Raspberry Pi 1's and 2's.
