FAQPage Schema
How do I switch the macOS container runtime from Docker to Apple Container?

Switching the macOS container runtime from Docker to Apple Container involves modifying core configuration files such as `src/container-runtime.ts` and updating build scripts to use the native Apple Container backend for NanoClaw.

What is Apple Container used for on macOS systems?

Apple Container on macOS provides native container isolation, serving as an alternative runtime to Docker for executing applications like NanoClaw with better system integration and potentially simplified setup.

Can I use Apple Container with NanoClaw on an M1 MacBook?

Yes, using Apple Container with NanoClaw on an M1 MacBook provides native container isolation and better performance by switching the runtime away from Docker for a simplified macOS setup.

How do I verify that Apple Container mounts are working correctly after switching runtimes?

Verifying that Apple Container mounts work correctly after switching runtimes requires running validation tests, specifically checking read-only and read-write mount configurations to ensure the new runtime is fully functional.

What configuration files need to be modified to change the container runtime to Apple Container?

Modifying the container runtime to Apple Container requires updating `src/container-runtime.ts`, `src/container-runner.ts`, and adjusting build scripts and Dockerfiles to reflect the runtime transition.
