Native Docker on Apple Silicon with vz

Docker without docker desktop??? That's vz — our new open source Rust library for native virtualization on Apple Silicon. No daemon. No license fees. - Build docker images natively - Run Docker Compose in an ARM Linux sandbox (fast!) - MacOS VMs AND Linux containers from one tool - Full VM isolation — hardware boundary, nothing leaks - No Docker Desktop required ✅ This is an early release. Next up: running Claude, Codex, and other coding agents in their own isolated space...

https://github.com/gpu-cli/vz 0.3 includes an installer so it's much easier to use now
