     1  # Docker Experimental Features
     2  
     3  This page contains a list of features in the Docker engine which are
     4  experimental. Experimental features are **not** ready for production. They are
     5  provided for test and evaluation in your sandbox environments.
     6  
     7  The information below describes each feature and the GitHub pull requests and
     8  issues associated with it. If necessary, links are provided to additional
     9  documentation on an issue.  As an active Docker user and community member,
    10  please feel free to provide any feedback on these features you wish.
    11  
    12  ## Use Docker experimental
    13  
    14  Experimental features are now included in the standard Docker binaries as of
    15  version 1.13.0.
    16  For enabling experimental features, you need to start the Docker daemon with
    17  `--experimental` flag.
    18  You can also enable the daemon flag via `/etc/docker/daemon.json`. e.g.
    19  
    20  ```json
    21  {
    22      "experimental": true
    23  }
    24  ```
    25  
    26  Then make sure the experimental flag is enabled:
    27  
    28  ```bash
    29  $ docker version -f '{{.Server.Experimental}}'
    30  true
    31  ```
    32  
    33  ## Current experimental features

    40  ## How to comment on an experimental feature

    42  Each feature's documentation includes a list of proposal pull requests or PRs associated with the feature. If you want to comment on or suggest a change to a feature, please add it to the existing feature PR.
