Description

Ordinary programs can be wrapped so they keep running in the background like Unix daemons. This is useful for administrators who need simple service behavior for software that does not daemonize itself.

Background wrappers can hide failures or leave unmanaged processes if configured poorly. Prefer native systemd units when appropriate, and verify logging, restart behavior, permissions, and shutdown handling.
