Personally, I think it's a brilliant idea that the service charges for whole dependency by package.json instead of each single package. This is the approach that corporations like

I like this comment

what about lima? it seems more easier to get.

Lima absolutely rocks. For me, there are a few small nits, but overall probably the best to replace Docker. Out of the box ("brew install lima; limactl start") lima gives you an Ubuntu VM with containerd and nerdctl. Nerdctl is mostly compatible with the docker cli as others on this thread have mentioned. The examples/ directory also has configs for starting up k3s or k8s. Rancher Desktop is also using Lima.

Minikube also works, but I can't get host directories mounted in the VM; running nfsd on the Mac is a reasonable work-around. It does start up k8s containers, so if you just want a docker-like environment, it might be overkill.

I’m in the process of changing our local development containerisation strategy within the business from Docker for Desktop to Lima. So far it’s been absolutely flawless.

Every TIL runner: "See. This is the result."

Some people don't know why must not do something.

What is the exact point? Is Chromebooks a pretty good choice, or not bad as expected?

The most annoying thing about those junk mail is that it actually distracts me from focusing on really important notices.
