Podman

About Podman

Podman is a current Windows application available through the WinGet community catalog. Podman is a daemonless, open source, Linux native tool designed to make it easy to find, run, build, share and deploy applications using Open Containers Initiative (OCI) Containers and Container Images. Podman provides a command line interface (CLI) familiar to anyone who has used the Docker Container Engine. Most users can simply alias Docker to Podman (alias docker=podman) without any problems. Similar to other common Container Engines (Docker, CRI-O, containerd), Podman relies on an OCI compliant Container Runtime (runc, crun, runv, etc) to interface with the operating system and create the running containers. This makes the running containers created by Podman nearly indistinguishable from those created by any other common container engine. This page summarizes the current version, developer, license, supported platform and official access address. Review the listed features and system requirements before installation. Version availability can differ by device or region, so confirm important details on the publisher's website and download only from the verified official source.
