Docker to my knowledge still requires a real Linux running somewhere, somehow. In MacOS, it has traditionally been some sort of a VM running under the hood via docker-machine. As this is emulationvirtualization, it has a rather severe overhead.
This containerization framework sounds like it might enable a more light-weight version of Linux, somewhat similar to what Windows has had via WSL for some time.

docker-machine doesn’t use emulation, it’s virtualization.
Yeah, good catch
