Is it possible to use Coder with Apple Containerization instead of Docker Desktop?

Do you mean to run the coder itself or the workspaces?
If it's a coder then you should be able to run it.
If it's workspaces then we probably need support in the terrafrom-provider-docker or a new terraform provider for apple containers.

I would like to be able to run everything in containers for security reasons. I don't want a malicious npm package in one of my workspaces to have any way to do anything on my computer outside of the workspace. I have heard that Apple Containers are more secure than Docker Desktop by default because each container is run in its own isolated VM.
