Planned Machines kinds for guests — not the local shell.

Coming soon / planned. Virtual machines and containers will be first-class Machine kinds in the Wawona GUI: configure them per-machine and start them from Machines.

This is not the on-device shell (bundled zsh). A local terminal does not require a guest OS.

App Store and TestFlight materials for the Wawona iOS/iPadOS app must not mention jailbreak, TrollStore, or JIT. This page may.
