+# Experimental Devbox VM
+
+Experimental support for Devbox virtual machines on macOS.
+
+## Usage
+
+The `dxvm` command acts like `devbox shell` except that it launches the Devbox
+environment in a VM.
+
+To create a new VM, run with the `-install` flag inside a Devbox project
+directory:
+
+	cd ~/my/project
+	dxvm -install
+
+The VM will start, install NixOS, and then reboot into a shell. This step might
+appear to hang at times while it downloads NixOS.
+
+After the VM is created, you no longer need the `-install` flag:
+
+	cd ~/my/project
+	dxvm
+
+The NixOS installer files are cached in `~/.local/state/devbox/vm`. You can
+monitor the ISO in this directory to estimate how far along the download is. The
+final size should be around 800 MiB.
+
+The first time `dxvm` is run in a Devbox project, it creates a `.devbox/vm`
+directory that contains the VM's state and configuration files:
+
+- `log` - error and debug log messages
+- `console` - the Linux kernel console output
+- `disk.img` - main disk image, typically mounted as root
+- `id` - an opaque Virtualization Framework machine ID
+
+The following files can be edited (for example, `echo 4 > cpu`) to adjust the
+VM's resources:
+
+- `mem` - the amount of memory (in bytes) to allocate to the VM
+- `cpu` - the number of CPUs to allocate to the VM
+
+There are two directories shared between the host and guest machines:
+
+- `boot -> /boot` - gives the host access to the NixOS kernel and initrd so it
+  can create a bootloader
+- `bootstrap -> ~/bootstrap` - contains a script for bootstrapping a new VM from
+  a vanilla NixOS installer ISO (only mounted with `-install`)
+
+## Building
+
+This package uses the macOS Virtualization Framework, and therefore needs CGO.
+Devbox and Nix are unable to download the macOS SDK directly, so some extra
+setup is required:
+
+- macOS Ventura (13) or later
+- XCode command line tools (open Xcode at least once to accept the EULA)
+
+To compile and sign `dxvm` run:
+
+	devbox run build
+
+It's okay if it prints a couple of warnings about duplicate libraries and
+replacing the code-signing signature.
+
+The `devbox run build` script uses `./cmd/dxvmsign` to sign the Go binary, which
+allows it to use the Virtualization Framework. It's a small wrapper around
+Apple's `codesign` utility.
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Intel macOS hasn't been tested yet.
+- Using ctrl-c to exit has the unfortunate side-effect of making it impossible
+to interrupt a program in the VM.
+- The host terminal has no way of telling the guest when it has resized (usually
+this is done with SIGWINCH). Running less/vim/etc. in the VM might look messed
+up. Run `stty cols X rows Y` in the VM to manually set the size of your terminal
+window.
+
+# Todo/Ideas
+
+- Support macOS and x86_64-linux.
+- macOS Sonoma added support for VM suspend/resume. This would probably make VM
+start times a lot faster (maybe instant?).
+- Clipboard sharing.
+- Expose sockets for services.
+- Mount /nix/store as an overlay to share packages between VMs.
+- Communicate directly with the host Nix daemon?
+- Disk resizing.
+- Memory balloon (adjust VM memory at runtime).
+- Multiple consoles.
+
+## Docs
+
+Some useful links for learning more about the Virtualization Framework:
