I'm really excited to see this because I've spent the last few months experimenting with Docker to see if it's a viable alternative to Vagrant.

I work for a web agency and currently, our engineers use customized Vagrant boxes for each of the projects that they work on. But that workflow doesn't scale and it's difficult to maintain a base box and all of the per project derivatives. This is why Docker seems like a no-brainer for us.

However, it became very clear that we would have to implement our own tooling to make a similar environment. Things like resolving friendly domain names (project-foo.local or project-bar.local) and adding in a reverse proxy to have multiple projects use port 80.

Docker for Mac looks like it will solve at least the DNS issue.

Can't wait to try it out.
