Thanks, Sam!
I will look into using parallels. Meanwhile I did get a Nuc+Ubuntu dusted off over the weekend and got (most of) kata building. 

Cheers,
Dan

    I am also now developing on a Mac ;-)
    Since you can’t run Kata natively on MacOS, you’re going to end up doing nested virt, either through Docker, Vagrant or a VM.
    Based on this, I personally think it makes a lot more sense to run a full blown Linux VM and develop on top of it. I use Parallels and the parallels hypervisor (not the hvf one) and that seems to work fine for me.

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers.
    Samuel.
