Docker for Mac Beta Review

Re:Docker for Mac Beta Review by wichsen on Monday April 25, 2016 @07:09PM (#11568128)

Question: Is this compatible with OS X 10.9.x or earlier? Or is it only for the latest pieces of shit that are 10.10/10.11?

edit thanks for the correction netheril96!

I'm curious about the state of compatibility because I've drawn a line in the sand -- and refuse to upgrade from 10.9 (since many things seem to be getting only worse and less stable in MAC OS land :).

There's a genuine question in there that would be easier to get an answer without your judgements...

OS X Hypervisor Framework, which this uses via xhyve, is only available starting on OS X Yosemite v10.10.

Hypervisor.framework (which xhyve depends on) was only added in 10.10, it's unlikely to work in anything less than that.

It's hard to say until one of the Docker 4 Mac employees [hopefully] steps in. I'm also keen to find this out!
