Please add VXLan plugin, other plugins such as Calico needs docker installed and can not run standalone

How would you foresee vxlan working? CNI doesn't have any sort of remote-host discovery, so VTEPs would have to be distributed another way.

You may wish to consider flannel, which runs a small daemon on each host to distribute vxlan routes over k8s or etcd.

@squeed Same way as overlay in Docker works or ipvlan but being able to specify vni, multicast group, etc.

I don't need to stick on k8s, I want something platform-agnostic, for instance creating something new on top of containerd

Same here, my use-case is just plain containers without k8s.

Go for it :-). However, this repository is supposed to be for broadly useful plugins with a minimal maintenance burden; it may or may not be a good fit here. But, given that, as you describe, only some basic Linux networking configuration may be required, I could be convinced.
