Description
## Background:
> [Containerization Framework](https://github.com/apple/containerization) is a new way supported by Apple to run Linux containers on macOS. Apple also releases [a command line tool similar to Docker](https://github.com/apple/container).
See https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/11012
It is rumored to have better or comparable performance than [docker desktop or orbstack](https://www.reddit.com/r/devops/comments/1ozndrw/apple_containers_vs_docker_desktop_vs_orbstack/)
## Request
I would love to see similar support via the CLI!
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the CLI's current container-runtime integration and the linked Containerization Framework and VS Code issue. Done means the CLI provides comparable support for Apple's container tooling on macOS, with the supported scope and validation documented.
