|
|
|
+[Docker for Mac](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/) is an easy-to-install,
|
|
|
+lightweight Docker development environment designed specifically for the Mac. A
|
|
|
+native Mac application, Docker for Mac uses the macOS Hypervisor framework,
|
|
|
+networking, and filesystem. It's the best solution if you want to build, debug,
|
|
|
+test, package, and ship Dockerized applications on a Mac. Docker for Mac
|
|
|
+supersedes [Docker Toolbox](#toolbox) as state-of-the-art Docker for macOS.

|
+runs as a native Windows app. It works with Windows Server 2016, and gives you
|
|
|
+the ability to set up and run Windows containers as well as the standard Linux
|
|
|
+containers (with an option to switch between the two). Docker for Windows is the
