The biggest gap from developers will be the lack of docker on freebsd.

  You could do what docker does on the mac, put it in a linux vm.

  Personally, I find that to be an asset not a failure.

  > lack of docker on freebsd I'm using sysutils/docker on FreeBSD with DOCKER_HOST env var set to "ssh://user@linuxvm" where linuxvm is a local VM running on bhyve[1]. Part of local FreeBSD filesystem is shared with the Linux VM via virtio-9p passthrough. Everything plays together nicely. nerdctl[2] works with sysutils/containerd. You can't run Linux images on FreeBSD kernel (Linux jails may be an option) but there are FreeBSD images. Pkgbase[3] aims to make FreeBSD more modular, divided in chunks smaller than "base", "ports", "src"; feasible for containers.

    Has anyone packaged this into a single, easy-to-use command/application? (Like "Docker for Mac")

  This may be an issue for some developers, but not all. I’m a developer and I never use Docker.

  GNU/Linux developers.
