I would like to run (Docker-in-Docker) DIND inside a SWARM cluster(Swarm Mode).

As Swarm does not support the --privileged flag its not possible to start a DIND Container like you see in the tutorials. However --privileged can be "emulated"

What --cap-add flags should be used in oder to be able to run DIND in Swarm Mode?

Yes, Kubernetes. – Vad1mo Jul 27 '22 at 21:14
Heh. Was afraid of this being the long-term answer. Thank you anyway. – Moritz Friedrich Jul 28 '22 at 06:50
@MoritzFriedrich did you find a solution? :D I just hope... – ybalcanci Mar 27 '23 at 10:33
Well, in a way: I opted for mounting the Docker socket as a volume instead (`/var/run/docker.sock:ro`). This way, all you need is a Docker client and you're good to go, but be aware that you're talking to Docker on the Swarm host, not inside an isolated environment. That was good enough for my purposes. – Moritz Friedrich Mar 28 '23 at 09:39
