Streamlining bootable container workflows with podman-bootc - DevConf.CZ 2024

Speaker(s): German Maglione --- This project introduces an extension to the successful OCI container model, expanding the concept of 'layers' to model bootable host systems and leveraging standard OCI containers as a delivery format for base operating system updates. We present podman-bootc, a scriptable tool designed to streamline the ""edit-compile-debug"" cycle for bootable containers. Essentially, it facilitates an ergonomic and efficient workflow by enabling the direct booting of a container image as a virtual machine. --- Full schedule, including slides and other resources: https://pretalx.com/devconf-cz-2024/schedule/
