Possibly they'll do something like WSL/WSL2 to provide an ARM based Linux kernel interface and then use Rosetta2 to translate the x64 code in user space to ARM?

Having ARM only containers would be mostly useless (it's technically possible, but I bet there are very few ARM container images around).
- cpuguy83 6y agoAll the base images are multi arch, which I suspect covers the majority of uses in dev envs.
- dannyw 6y agoThere are heaps and heaps of ARM containers around thanks to the Raspberry Pi. I've never had a problem running Docker on my Pi, and I don't expect anyone will have a problem running Docker on a Mac given Apple's much much larger developer market share.
