Therefore, I tried an alternative: remote development. There are workarounds for it, like mounting volumes as NFS, but it is all very OSx specific, a bit complicated to set up, and still slower than running Docker on Linux. I got it running but quickly ran into performance issues related to volume mounts which are not new for Docker on OSx. Recently, I decided to work in a shared office space and bought a Macbook Air with the new M1 chip.ĭocker for Mac is supported and the Apple CPU support is in beta.

As a gamer and hobby game developer, Windows is a must. Ubuntu is mainly for the great support for development tools like Docker and I used it because my production systems run in Linux. My old setup was a dual boot desktop with Ubuntu 20.04 and Windows 10.
