OrbStack is a fast, light, and simple way to run containers and Linux machines on macOS. It's a supercharged alternative to Docker Desktop and WSL, all in one easy-to-use app.
I recently booted up a new macbook and spent about an hour trying (unsuccessfully) to get docker desktop to work reliably.
On my previous macbook, about once a day docker desktop would become unresponsive, and the only way i could get it to reopen was to restart my entire machine.
So this is a tribute to orbstack, which afiact is a full drop in replacement.
To be honest i havent thought about it once since i installed it, and that is amazing :)
OrbStack is rocket-fast—no more suffering through the snail pace of Docker Desktop! 🚀
It just makes working with containers like a breeze. This shows the value of ye old UNIX philosophy: do one thing good. And plus, OrbStack just keeps getting better!
Simply amazing - if you have ever tried docker for Mac then you know the issues - this drop in replacement will blow you away and then some! Performance. Stability. Compatibility. Even does IPv6 out the box unlike official docker for Mac!
