### Docker Desktop Enterprise 2.0.0.0

2019-01-31

New features:

  - **Version selection**: Configurable version packs ensure the local
    instance of Docker Desktop Enterprise is a precise copy of the
    production environment where applications are deployed, and
    developers can switch between versions of Docker and
    Kubernetes with a single click.

  - **Application Designer**: Application templates allow you to choose a
    technology and focus on business logic. Updates can be made with
    minimal syntax knowledge.

  - **Device management**: The Docker Desktop Enterprise installer is available as standard MSI (Win) and PKG (Mac) downloads, which allows administrators to script an installation across many developer machines.

  - **Administrative control**: IT organizations can specify and lock configuration parameters for creation of a standardized development environment, including disabling drive sharing and limiting version pack installations. Developers run commands in the command line without worrying about configuration settings.
