About 5 hours ago, Apple released a Swift package (Containerization) and a CLI tool (container) to easily run Linux containers on Mac computers.

Containerization uses Virtualization.framework on Apple silicon to provide APIs to spawn lightweight virtual machines and manage their runtime environment, manage OCI images, interact with remote registries, etc. It relies on vmnet framework for managing the virtual network to which the containers attach.

container is a user-facing tool for creating and running Linux containers as lightweight virtual machines. It works with OCI-compliant container images, allowing you to interact with common container registries. Using it, you can also configure memory and CPU limitations for containers, build and run multiplatform images, share host files with containers, view container and system logs.

Both projects are available as Open Source (Apache 2 license). More details about them:
- container on GitHub
- Containerization on GitHub
- video presentation by Michael Crosby from WWDC25
