However, if you’re using a newer Mac with Apple Silicon, the installation process is slightly different compared to Intel-based Macs.

This tutorial is designed to help you set up VirtualBox on macOS smoothly so you can start creating and running virtual machines (VMs) for development, testing, or learning purposes.

Here’s what we’ll cover in this video:

* What VirtualBox is and why it’s useful for developers and testers
* Compatibility details for VirtualBox on Apple Silicon (M1/M2) Macs
* Downloading and installing VirtualBox on macOS
