Was this a simulated Docker for Mac window for the presentation? If so it seems pretty misleading and makes me question everything else that was shown.Īnyone with a DTK have thoughts on this? Did I miss a part of the presentation where they mentioned anything about it?ĭocker for Mac has basically always used Linux in the background, it just spins up a Linux VM to run your containers (changing the resource allocations in the Docker control panel is essentially adjusting the parameters for that VM).
In the background you can see they show a running Docker for Mac control panel - complete with some running containers. If Docker says Docker for Mac is not functional yet on Apple Silicon - What was Apple showing us in the presentation? This is expected right now (and indeed there's nothing we can do about it yet) as the new chips don't have virtualisation support yet.
We're working closely on this with Apple. Now this is completely understandable, as according to the comments the Apple DTK lacks support for virtualization.
Docker for Mac has had an open issue since July 3 - Docker fails to launch on Apple Silicon #4733
