I really want to use this but am stuck (right now) having to use Caddy's docker tags integration for name resolution.
Can you not use Avahi in the guest and get zeroconf? Oh! Do you mean the issue is adding extra name resolution to a VM? Have you tried this avahi alias trick? https://gist.github.com/tomslominski/9d507acd4036952d65b2364... Works like a charm, bit odd that you have a persistent avahi client process broadcasting per alias, but it's lightweight.

#17Docker desktop on mac does not work well (uses lots of resources) and my current alternative is OrbStack (very slick, uses far less resources, but freemium).

#18Good name for this app, BTW.
Re: Show HN: Davit, a Apple Containers UI
#19This looks like a really solid app. I like that it's 17 MB and uses the ContainerAPIClient library directly. 28 commits in 3 days, 5,015 lines of Swift, every commit "Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5". Also neat that it's signed/notarized. I installed it and it downloaded the necessary container platform stuff on first launch. Suggestion: add a getting started tutorial to the site which suggests an image to try out and…

#20I don't know a lot about containers. Would containers created for/with this also work in Docker? Good name for this app, BTW.
