Docker on Lima (lima-vm/lima) Setup Guide

In recent months, Lima has become de facto standard software as a free and open source alternative to Docker Desktop for Mac. Several projects (such as Colima, Rancher Desktop, or Finch) for similar purpose also uses Lima as their backend. These projects will make it easier to set up Lima. But some people may not want to introduce extra components other than Lima. This guide will show you how to set up Lima to be alternative to Docker Desktop for Mac, while using Lima only.

🪣 Note. It is a good practice to uninstall Docker Desktop for Mac before proceeding with the following steps.

1. Install Lima and Docker CLI

Lima Cheatsheet for macOS

I stumbled on an incredible open source solution, Lima. In some ways, it has some of Hashicorp's Vagrant's resemblance, but in my opinion, it's so much superior in many ways as it doesn't use external dependencies such as Oracle's VirtualBox.

If you're used to docker on the command line but wanted to play with VMs rather than containers, then this is for you! No need to fuss with cloud-init as a user account (using your existing username in whoami) with a proper home directory would be auto-generated for you with full passwordless sudo privilege. SSH access to the VMs from the host is seamlessly integrated as well.

This quick guide is for those who need to set up virtual machines with modern Linux OSes (only few selected OSes are best supported) from scratch using only the command line. You can have a VM up and running within minutes from absolutely nothing.

NOTE: This was last tested using:
