# houdini: the world's worst containerizer
Houdini is effectively a no-op Garden backend portable to esoteric platforms
like Darwin and Windows.
For a Linux Garden backend, please use [Garden
Linux](https://github.com/cloudfoundry-incubator/garden-linux) instead.
Houdini makes no attempt to isolate containers from each other. It puts them
in a working directory, and hopes for the best.
On Windows, it will at least use [Job
Objects](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms684161%28v=vs.85%29.aspx)
to ensure processes are fully cleaned up. On OS X, there are basically no
good ways to do this, so it doesn't bother.
