but FreeNAS is about '20 minutes'* away from trying to implement a GUI package/plugin manager with IOCAGE for this very task so that they can set-and-forget the process and have it scripted into a launch command that is self-healing in case of failures.
'20 minutes' being 'maybe this year' in terms of delivery.
While it might not be the most practical guide for non-media use, it will get you past the basics of implementation and problem-solving,
especially the concept of putting iocage settings inside of a zpool dataset where it can be snapshot for backups, the issue of iocage not handling spaces inside datasets, without being escaped, and the networking glitch introduced in FN11.1 that can prevent IPv6/IPv4 addressing working as intended (that should be fixed by now ?)
to an extent, this is top-down, people will get their feet wet and learn, or not need to learn iocage.
or how to script pkg updates across the iocage 'fleet' etc.

as for the guide, it's perhaps better to integrate the FreeNAS resource page from their forums, since this is becoming the defacto standard in the interim, https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?resources/fn11-1-jails-...
