containers using the `-v` bind mount syntax. By default, you can share files in containers using the `-v` bind mount syntax. The following command runs a container
`/Users`, `/Volumes`, `/private`, and `/tmp` directly. To add or remove from an image called `r-base` and shares the macOS user's `~/Desktop/` directory as
directory trees that are exported to Docker, use the **File sharing** tab in `/Desktop` in the container.
