Congrats on the launch. Apple Silicon really threw a wrench in Docker local development workflows, and this feels like a natural solution. Does docker compose

  Thanks! We have a few users using docker-compose with a Makefile, where they run `depot build -t name:tag --load` to tag and pull the image locally, and then they reference the tag in their docker-compose.yml. That works, but we've considered adding a `depot bake` command that does the same thing as `docker buildx bake`, to make the integration nicer. Ideally docker-compose would have the ability to communicate with buildx drivers (that's what Depot registers as), but to my knowledge it doesn't currently have that option.

    imho having docker compose _build_ container images is an anti-pattern. Always do what the parent says -- build/pull separately (not using compose), then arrange to fix up the tag/version specified in the compose file to match.

  Apple Silicon can still build amd64 though right? Using BuildX and arch flags? I used it, didn’t have any issues but i realize there’s lots of reasons that might not work.

    You're right, you can, it's just one more thing to think about. I also had in mind Docker Desktop's licensing (paid-only for certain companies), but I now realize I was conflating that with Apple Silicon when it applies to Intel Macs too IIRC.
