About:
Anka Virtualization provides a powerful command-line interface for creating and managing macOS virtual machines. It enables developers to build, run, and manage lightweight, ephemeral VMs for CI/CD pipelines and local development environments. The tool is optimized for performance and integrates with popular automation tools.
Key Features:
  • Native macOS virtualization with Apple Silicon support
  • Fast VM cloning and snapshot management
  • Integration with CI/CD systems like Jenkins and GitLab
  • Registry for storing and distributing VM images
  • Docker-like CLI syntax for ease of use
Use Cases:
  • Running macOS-specific CI/CD build agents
  • Creating isolated development environments
  • Testing software across different macOS versions
Alternatives:
  • UTM – Open-source alternative with broader architecture support but less enterprise CI/CD focus
  • Parallels Desktop – GUI-focused virtualization with desktop features, less suited for headless automation
