Docker for Mac M1 RC

Unfortunately, I think apple only invests in things apple. So the "target market" is not developers for other platforms.

Too bad because a native apple docker would be really really useful. imagine:

  FROM macos:10.13.3
  RUN xcode-build

(I'm not talking about the current docker on mac which runs linux in a vm)

But where are you going to run the image? On a Mac Mini in your DC?

BTW macOS being a BSD derivative of sorts might benefit from Docker development on FreeBSD, which uses jails instead of cgroups, etc. At least, that could be easier to port, assuming that macOS kernel has the needed facilities.

I was thinking more of docker used for mac development, not docker used to deploy web apps.
