Florent Benoit works for Red Hat and is leading the development of the Podman Desktop project.
The goal is to have a nice UI to manage podman engine and also docker engine with a UI working on all main platforms Windows, macOS and Linux.
Before, Floret was working on the cloud IDE Eclipse Che project.
The software license model of Docker can be problematic for its adoption in enterprises.
Are you familiar with Podman, a free alternative to Docker? Podman implements Docker's REST API, allowing you to easily replace Docker with Podman while keeping your existing tools.
Podman operates in rootless mode or without a daemon and provides comprehensive container management, including the creation and running of OCI images/containers and even support for WebAssembly/WASM.
One advantage is its native management of certain Kubernetes objects, such as pods (a group of containers).
We will demonstrate how to use Podman Desktop for launching and managing containers, along with the entire ecosystem of components/applications revolving around Podman. We will also show the support for WebAssembly in Podman Desktop.
Finally, we will illustrate how transitioning to Kubernetes is facilitated by the support in this tool.
