I've been using this as my daily driver for Docker usage as well as running a Linux VM for testing Dokku. A few notes:
- It's definitely a work in progress, but there have been a ton of improvements dropping over the past few months. It definitely feels like it's improving in a good way.
- I think Docker _and_ Linux support is... well ambitious. There is certainly a ton of overlap (and I enjoy both) but its definitely going to be a question of focus as the product matures.
- The GUI needs some work - as all early GUIs/UIs do! - and is missing a ton of functionality in comparison to Docker Desktop. It definitely feels like its been somewhat tossed together in some cases. It's improving for sure, but still feels very beta.
- The Docker support is... well normal. I don't ever use the Docker Desktop UI, but the cli has worked just fine for all my usage thus far.
- It's quite nice to be able to shell into a lightweight Linux VM. Speed of npm install/bundling is pretty much the same as the host (though I'm not doing anything super fancy, just a normal Vue app) for the mounted volume. Same for go builds. I can't talk to it over the network, but thats coming.
- The maintainer has been super nice online and responsive to requests/suggestions. Obviously they can't work on everything at once, but the acknowledgement of "yes this is an issue, I've put some thought into it" is super important for folks/companies working in public.
- I'm somewhat concerned about pricing but honestly either my company will pay for it and I'll be fine _or_ I'm going to be priced out for personal usage, which is also okay. I'm not always the market for every product. I'm more concerned about having stable pricing (that isn't changing every year) and _clear_ value from enterprise licensing.
