Docker-OSX
Launch macOS virtual machines inside Docker containers. Get near-native KVM performance for CI/CD, security research, and cross-platform development on any host.
Run a complete macOS virtual machine directly within a Docker container. This project leverages QEMU and KVM to deliver near-native performance, making it possible to operate a responsive macOS environment on Linux and Windows (via WSL2) hosts. It is a versatile tool for developers, security researchers, and teams that need an accessible and disposable macOS instance.
This solution offers a wide range of capabilities to fit various workflows:
- Cross-Platform Operation: Use familiar Docker commands to manage a macOS VM on your existing Linux or Windows machine.
- High Performance: Get a smooth desktop experience thanks to KVM hardware acceleration.
- Broad macOS Version Support: Run numerous versions, including Catalina, Big Sur, Monterey, Ventura, and Sonoma.
- CI/CD Pipeline Ready: Easily integrate into automated testing and build systems for macOS or iOS applications.
- Advanced Use Cases: Conduct security research with features like iMessage access and iPhone USB passthrough.
- Flexible Access: Interact with your VM through a direct graphical interface (X11 forwarding), or run it headlessly with SSH, VNC, or SPICE access.
