Alternative for Docker Desktop on Mac

Docker Desktop on Mac consumes a lot of CPU and very slow. You can use docker-machine with parallels driver.

• Buy Parallels Desktop Pro license.

• Install docker-machine-parallels:

  brew install docker-machine-parallels
  

• Create docker-machine:

  docker-machine create -d parallels prl --parallels-memory=6G --parallels-cpu-count=4 docker-machine env prl eval $(
  docker-machine env prl)
  

  • Check if it works:

    docker-compose ps

Configure Jetbrains IDE (RubyMine, Idea, etc):

• Open Docker -> Tools, fill Docker Machine Executable with /usr/local/bin/docker-machine.
• Open Docker, and switch to Docker Machine.
