As of 2022, Podman enables the use of containers is a root-less environment, and we stopped using Docker for teaching. For what we need, it seems an almost unnoticeable replacement. If you alias docker=podman
, then you can enjoy the same CLI-compatible API as Docker.
Podman is an open-source, Linux-native tool designed to develop, manage, and run containers and pods under the Open Container Initiative (OCI) standards. Presented as a user-friendly container orchestrator developed by Red Hat, Podman is the default container engine in RedHat 8 and CentOS 8. It is advertised as a drop-in replacement for Docker (
alias docker=podman
).
