  1. containerization

    Containerization is a Swift package for running Linux containers on macOS.

    If you search the code, they support Rosetta, which means an ARM Linux kernel running x86 container userspace with Rosetta translation.

    Actually, they explained it in detail here: https://github.com/apple/containerization/issues/70#issuecom...

    It's unclear whether this will keep being supported in macOS 28+, though: https://github.com/apple/container/issues/76

  2. InfluxDB

  4. distribution-spec

    OCI Distribution Specification

  5. colima

    Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup

    I thought it's more like Colima than OrbStack

    https://github.com/abiosoft/colima

  6. orbstack

    Fast, light, simple Docker containers & Linux machines

    One of the reasons OrbStack is so great is because they implement their own hypervisor: https://orbstack.dev/

    Apple’s stack gives you low-level access to ARM virtualization features, and from there they have high-level convenience frameworks on top. OrbStack implements all of the high-level code themselves.

  7. xnu
