From 9d16d44fcdd790cd270075701c0b0186029d298f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: BP <11394934+benjipeng@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2026 16:03:33 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Stamp Docker for Apple Container v0.1.5 on Apple container 1.6.1 Release v0.1.5 advances the supported runtime to Apple container 1.6.1. The site still named 1.3.1, so update the requirement copy, the JSON-LD version and date, the footer stamp and the sitemap lastmod together. --- sites/docker-for-apple-container/public/index.html | 14 +++++++------- sites/docker-for-apple-container/public/llms.txt | 6 +++--- .../docker-for-apple-container/public/sitemap.xml | 2 +- 3 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/sites/docker-for-apple-container/public/index.html b/sites/docker-for-apple-container/public/index.html index 4cfd28f..aa878aa 100644 --- a/sites/docker-for-apple-container/public/index.html +++ b/sites/docker-for-apple-container/public/index.html @@ -82,9 +82,9 @@ "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://appautomaton.com/#website" }, "operatingSystem": "macOS", "applicationCategory": "DeveloperApplication", - "softwareVersion": "0.1.4", + "softwareVersion": "0.1.5", "datePublished": "2026-06-01", - "dateModified": "2026-09-10", + "dateModified": "2026-10-26", "license": "https://github.com/appautomaton/docker-for-apple-container/blob/main/LICENSE", "downloadUrl": "https://github.com/appautomaton/docker-for-apple-container/releases", "codeRepository": "https://github.com/appautomaton/docker-for-apple-container", @@ -95,7 +95,7 @@ "@type": "HowTo", "name": "Install docker-for-apple-container on macOS", "totalTime": "PT2M", - "supply": ["Homebrew or uv", "Apple container 1.3.1 only"], + "supply": ["Homebrew or uv", "Apple container 1.6.1 only"], "step": [ { "@type": "HowToStep", "position": 1, "name": "Install", "text": "Install with Homebrew (brew install appautomaton/tap/docker-for-apple-container) or with uv (uv tool install docker-for-apple-container).
