systemE Alternatives
systemE is described as 'Using the tooling in this repo, I am able to boot from linux to sinit as PID1, and from there to Emacs acting as PID2 using --script mode, performing all typical rc.boot system initialization using Emacs lisp until we hit the getty' and is an app. There are more than 10 alternatives to systemE for a variety of platforms, including Linux, BSD, Mac, Self-Hosted solutions and Python. The best alternative is systemd, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like systemE are runit, Launchd, s6 and OpenRC.
systemd is a replacement for the init daemon for Linux (either System V or BSD-style). It is intended to provide a better framework for expressing services' dependencies, allow more work to be done concurrently at system startup, and to reduce shell overhead.
Features
runit is a cross-platform Unix init scheme with service supervision, a replacement for sysvinit, and other init schemes. It runs on GNU/Linux, *BSD, MacOSX, Solaris, and can easily be adapted to other Unix operating systems.

a free system array created by Apple inc. For BSD - including macOS as macOS is based on the Darwin kernel of BSD
Features
s6 is a small suite of programs for UNIX, designed for process supervision. It can be used as an init system. You can also use all its programs separately.
OpenRC is a dependency-based init system that works with the system provided init program, normally /sbin/init. It is not a replacement for /sbin/init. OpenRC is 100% compatible with Gentoo init scripts, which means you can probably find one for the daemons you want to start in...
Features
eudev is a fork of systemd with the aim of isolating udev from any particular flavor of system initialization. This is a project started by Gentoo developers to ensure udev remains system initialization and distribution neutral.

It shows your boot behaviour including login as a PNG graphic and lets your analize possible bottlenecks. Resource utilization and process information are collected during the boot...
Features
The Sysvinit package contains programs for controlling the startup, running, and shutdown of the system.
Features
The nosh package is a suite of system-level utilities for initializing and running a BSD or Linux system, and for managing daemons.
This app doesn't have any features at the moment.Finit is a small SysV init replacement with process supervision similar to that of daemontools and runit. Its focus is on small and embedded GNU/Linux systems, although fully functional on standard server and desktop installations.
