What's Changed

Mok is already easy to use on Linux, and now it's easy to use on Mac OS with Apple silicon (M1,M2,M3,M4).

Mac OS changes:

  • Adds a new 'machine' command to mok, for managing and setting up a Podman Machine.
  • Mok will prompt the user to create or start the machine with, mok machine create or mok machine start.
  • Mok now checks for the 5 homebrew packages it needs.
  • Mok installs homebrew if it's not installed already.
  • mok build image --get-prebuilt-image can now be used on Mac OS.

Mok will not update any of your startup files so the system will feel exactly the same as before Mok was installed. No Podman Desktop and no extra commands (except mok).
