Containers

Open Repository for Container Tools

Welcome to Containers!

We're a collection of open source tools that create, configure, and work with containers.

🛠️ Tools

Some of our tools include Podman, Buildah, Skopeo, conmon-rs, crun, Podman Desktop and youki, just to name a few. We also have several supporting libraries for these tools, such as common, storage, image, and more. Check them out and see all the cool things happening!

🤝 Community

We have an active community. Most of our community communication channels are around Podman, but we definitely welcome anyone with an interest in containers or any of our tools.

Maintainers of Containers and other community members generally chat here:

The Matrix room has been bridged with the Discord server and the libera.chat channel so joining one should be sufficient. Is the bridge down? Check out this guide.

We hold also community meetings around once a month and have a mailing list for additional discussion.

👩‍💻 Contributing

We welcome and encourage contributions, including issues, discussions, and PR's. Please make sure to read our Contributing Guidelines and our Code of Conduct before doing so.

🔐 Security

Found a security issue? Most projects follow our Security and Disclosure Policy, but a few may have further instructions, so please check the specific project's SECURITY.md in their top-level repository on how to proceed.
