Apple has introduced 'container,' an open-source command-line tool developed in Swift for running Linux containers as isolated virtual machines on Apple silicon Macs. This approach differs from typical macOS container tools by dedicating a separate lightweight VM to each container, enhancing security and privacy. The tool is compatible with macOS 26 and later, leveraging Apple's Virtualization and vmnet frameworks for performance and integration. AI
IMPACT Enhances developer workflows by providing isolated, reproducible environments for AI model development and deployment on Apple hardware.
