A method includes: accessing a set of hardware parameters characterizing an embedded device; identifying a set of supported container functions based on the set of hardware parameters; accessing a selection of container functions; identifying a set of selected container functions based on the selection of container functions and the set of supported container functions; generating a hardware abstraction layer (HAL) including a set of libraries supporting the set of selected container functions; generating a container runtime environment (CRE) configured to execute, at the embedded device, a containerized application via the HAL, the containerized application including the set of selected container functions; installing the HAL and the CRE onto the embedded device; installing the containerized application onto the embedded device via the CRE; and at the embedded device, executing the containerized application via the CRE and the HAL.
