To build the Containerization package, you need:
- Mac with Apple silicon
- macOS 15 minimum, macOS 26 beta recommended
- macOS 26 beta
- Xcode 26 beta
Applications built using the package will run on macOS 15 or later, but the following features are not available on macOS 15:
- Non-isolated container networking - with macOS 15, containers on the same vmnet network cannot communicate with each other
Older versions of macOS are not supported.

### Pre-built Kernel
If you wish to consume a pre-built kernel it must have `VIRTIO` drivers compiled into the kernel, not as modules.

The [Kata Containers](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers) project provides an optimized kernel for containers with all the required configuration options enabled provided on the [releases](https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/releases/) page.
A kernel image named `vmlinux.container` can be found in the `/opt/kata/share/kata-containers/` directory of the release artifacts.
