Debian 12 on the bare hardware (which I think is 2c/4t) and then setup Docker. You can also then run KVMs if you want. QEMU will be your friend.
If you had a newer, faster NUC, or similar, Proxmox as the hypervisor and then Debian 12 as VM with Docker on it. You get LXC with Proxmox "for free," ( LOL ) so that kinda rocks. Two cores is not really a decent speed point. And it needs 8GB of RAM to be useful in that case. I **think** NUC 7 doesn't normally have that, but I don't NUC much--I used minipc non-NUC "clones." For lack of a better word.
