Anyone played around with Podman Desktop? (lemmy.zip)

I've started playing with it and it is actually pretty cool. I can create basic containers and then group them into pods. Once the pods are running and healthy I can deploy to Kubernetes

It's certainly a GUI for a thing. What's your question though?

It is a GUI but it really helps me wrap my head around building Kubernetes deployments. Technically you could use a combination of podman and kubectl to do something similar but with Podman desktop it is all integrated which is nice.

Well an abstract from the real work might catch you in a weird spot, especially with the k8s world.

Eh... Without examples, I don't know that this is a good warning.

Everyone gets into different technologies at their own pace. Even if it does bite OP in some abstract way because they eventually get to some complex use case, that's okay; it's all a learning experience.

Tried it a couple times. Went back to the CLI.

If you know the CLI or are willing to learn, the GUI is yet-another layer for bugs to exist.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 months ago

I do both

I use podman cockpit with virtualmin on my home server, can manage everything from my phone that way
