What is Podman? Simply put: `alias docker=podman`

Podman specializes in all of the commands and functions that help you to maintain and modify OCI container images, such as pulling and tagging. It allows you to create, run, and maintain those containers created from those images in a production environment. +

+Podman runs only on Linux platforms, however a REST API is currently under development which will +allow Mac and Windows platforms to call the server. There is currently a Varlink based remote client which +runs on Mac or Windows platforms that allows the remote client to talk to the Podman +server on a Linux platform. NOTE: the Varlink remote client will be deprecated after the REST API +is completed. In addition to those clients, there is also a Mac client.
