The `--vm-driver=xhyve` flag specifies that you are using Docker for Mac. The
default VM driver is VirtualBox.
Note if `minikube start --vm-driver=xhyve` is unsuccessful due to the error:
```
Error creating machine: Error in driver during machine creation: Could not convert the UUID to MAC address: exit status 1
```
Then the following may resolve the `minikube start --vm-driver=xhyve` issue:
```
rm -rf ~/.minikube
sudo chown root:wheel $(brew --prefix)/opt/docker-machine-driver-xhyve/bin/docker-machine-driver-xhyve
sudo chmod u+s $(brew --prefix)/opt/docker-machine-driver-xhyve/bin/docker-machine-driver-xhyve
```
Now set the Minikube context. The context is what determines which cluster
`kubectl` is interacting with. You can see all your available contexts in the
`~/.kube/config` file.
