lxroot is a lightweight alternative to chroot, Docker, and other software virtualization tools.
lxroot allows a non-root user to quickly and easily create a "chroot-style" virtual software environment (via Linux namespaces), and then run one or more programs (a "guest userland") inside that environment.
While you can run lxroot directly, I recommend learning vland first.
vland is a virtual userland manager. vland is implemented as a convenience wrapper around lxroot. vland can automatically download, install, and configure a guest userland for use with lxroot. Both vland and lxroot operate without root access.
