What is Podman?

Podman is a daemonless, open-source container engine for developing, managing, and running OCI Containers on Linux systems. It's commonly used as a Docker alternative, enabling users to run containers without requiring root privileges (daemonless) and offering enhanced security features. Podman directly interacts with the Linux kernel's containerization features and image registries.
