Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup
What it does
Colima is a free tool that lets developers run containerized software (self-contained packages of apps and their dependencies) on Mac computers with minimal setup effort. Think of it as a simple on-ramp for running the same kind of isolated app environments on a Mac that are typically used in cloud servers and production environments.
Why it matters for PMs
With nearly 27,000 stars on GitHub, Colima has become a popular free alternative to Docker Desktop, which charges teams for commercial use — meaning companies can reduce software licensing costs while keeping developer workflows intact. For founders and PMs, this signals strong demand for flexible, cost-effective local development tools, especially as teams scale and per-seat software costs add up.
