OrbStack Overview
The verified downloads on this page point to OrbStack 2.1.3 DMG packages for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs from OrbStack's official update CDN. These files are useful when preparing a reusable installer for managed Macs or restricted networks where the package needs to be downloaded once and installed later. OrbStack focuses on fast container startup, lower resource usage than a full virtual machine stack, and a native macOS workflow for developers. The separate Apple Silicon and Intel downloads help teams choose the correct DMG for their hardware instead of relying on a generic download page. For deployment, download the DMG that matches the target Mac architecture, keep the file with your internal software package library, and install it locally on the target machine. Check OrbStack's official release notes before broad deployment because container runtime changes can affect development workflows and team images. The OrbStack offline installer is the standalone setup distribution for macOS, with the full setup file suitable for offline deployment on developer workstations and CI/build machines that cannot reach the vendor's update servers during install.
