Podman is a daemonless container engine for running and managing OCI containers on Linux. Although it is a native Linux tool, Podman can also be used on other operating systems:
On Windows, Podman runs using the Windows Subsystem for Linux.
On macOS, Podman utilizes a Linux VM.
Podman was created to be an alternative to Docker. It bears many similarities to the popular containerization tool, but it also differs in some important aspects.
