How to browse your volumes on Docker for Mac

Docker for Mac runs a virtual machine on your laptop. To view the volumes, you need to attach a terminal to that virtual machine. You can do that like this:

screen ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/com.docker.driver.amd64-linux/tty

Now the volumes can be found here:

cd /var/lib/docker/volumes
ls -lah
