Native Virtualization For macOS

And open source, very nice.
Now does anyone want to spend as much on a laptop to run VM's on, or just purchase a server?
Of course for student labs or light usage this could be useful for a lot of people.

Its a virtualbox alternative, with just 13 MB size. Haven't tried it yet, need to check this on my home mac. Those who used, told me that its faster.

That's pretty cool. I have only needed/wanted to do this once on my Mac but that is cool

Had no idea that Mac OSX had a native hypervisor framework built in.

You are finding all sorts of stuff today!

Hypervisor is available on Mac OSX from Yosemite.

Hypervisor (Hypervisor.framework). The Hypervisor framework allows virtualization vendors to build virtualization solutions on top of OS X without needing to deploy third-party kernel extensions (KEXTs). Included is a lightweight hypervisor that enables virtualization of the host CPUs.
