Apple Virtualization Framework
This is higher-level than the Hypervisor framework; this Virtualization framework providers an entire VM with virtio peripherals including a display.
https://github.com/lima-vm/lima can use Virtualization framework for creating VMs, there is also https://github.com/gyf304/vmcli as a very simple CLI utility for running VMs, though it's not very actively maintained.
-
Is there anything like WSL2 in Mac?
In that case, VMs are probably the best options. If performance is not the issue, you can look at UTM (https://docs.getutm.app/installation/macos/). Free from GitHub and $10 from App Store. Parallels is a good option as well. Or something simple as https://github.com/gyf304/vmcli from CLI.

Running Intel Binaries in Linux VMs with Rosetta
Virtualization.framework is the hypervisor itself, you only need simple tool to launch it. You probably could just copy-paste provided code into eg. https://github.com/gyf304/vmcli. However macOS 13 beta seems to be only available for registered developers.
-
M1 For Development 1 month later
Use https://github.com/gyf304/vmcli and install docker on Ubuntu ARM. But I am not sure, probably qemu emulation is not going to be here, so you will have to run only ARM images. And for this option you can also install k8s.
