Hi @fafarun thanks for the suggestion and for the interest to contribute. I think there are mainly two components which you would need to use. The building of the container image, which maybe all you need to do is to pass the armbian base image. https://github.com/kairos-io/kairos/blob/master/images/Dockerfile.debian#L5

But you might need to extend it so that it can understand how to deal with the board e.g.: https://github.com/kairos-io/kairos/blob/master/images/Dockerfile.debian#L132-L133

Then, you probably also need to extend the osbuilder so it can produce an img for this board e.g.: https://github.com/kairos-io/osbuilder/blob/master/tools-image/arm/boards/rpi4.sh

I hope that helps to get you started.
