With all the changes recently quite a few people have been talking about Docker Desktop and trying to understand what it actually does on your machine. This is what we set out to do with Docker Desktop.

Docker Desktop also provides you with a graphical interface to manage the settings for this VM, on Mac we provide the tools to change the resources this has access to (CPU, RAM etc) and on Windows we provide the tools to choose which distros can access this.

Docker Desktop automates all of this and provides you a simple UI to make changes as you need.

With support for Apple M1 ARM Mac and QEMU included in Docker Desktop, you are able to build and use multi-architecture images (Linux x86, ARM, Windows) on whatever platform you are working on out of the box.
