I am not creating a Linux VM to replace Docker.

I have a Linux system (the VM). Docker is installed on that Linux system and I do all docker related work on the Linux system.

Ah, obv I misunderstood your above post.

Makes a ton of sense. It’s been a while since I used Docker, but I’ll have to try it out next time I’m using a container setup. Particularly since HyperKit seems to make running a VM so straight forward.

Yes, this is really the only way to tolerate Docker on a Mac. Basically it's the same thing WSL does on Windows. Linux in a VM then you run Docker in the VM. Not many people talk about doing it this way though.
