Wow! Did Docker give up swarm? I thought there was a time when Docker didn't like the existence of k8s all that much.

Anyways, I envision this being very useful for development, may even replace my docker-compose based test setup.

Anyway to get this feature without updating to High Sierra first?

Docker for Mac is not usable today, because of high cpu due IO [1]

Docker was in other news yesterday, though it got flagged: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16074264

Officially, both Swarm and Kubernetes are valued features of Docker.

Swarm was always much simpler to get started with, so some people will prefer it. But it's clear to me which one won.

Your docker compose yml is trivially reusable for Swarm. We run it in production and is spectacular .

The complexity overhead of kubernetes may be premature when you don't have massive requirements

Which feature?

If you want a standalone installation of Kubernetes on a Mac try minikube.

Oh man. Thanks for sharing this. I thought it was just my Mac.
