[Podman] Re: looking for guidance on writing 1-day "docker" training course

Hi Robert, I think this mail list is a perfect place to at the very least start up the discussion.   Unfortunately the folks with probably the best answers are at conferences and/or are doing the PTO thing so they might not check in for a bit.  It would be good to hear from Scott McCarty, Dan Walsh and William Henry who've done a fair amount of presentations at conferences.  Just off the top of my head: o    What are Containers o    The container applications o    Quick intro to Buildah o    Deeper intro to Podman (Podman uses Buildah when it does `podman build`). o    Introduction to Dockerfiles o    Building a Container image     o    Touch on Docker and OCI formats o    Building a container o    Intro to container registries         o    Quay.io         o     Docker.io         o    Build your own registry o    Pulling and Pushing to a Container Registry o    Rootless Podman o    Security features of Podman At least a start there.  For a little deeper dive you could check out these resources: o https://github.com/containers/libpod/tree/master/docs/tutorials  - Intro and Rootless tutorials for Podman o    Replacing Docker with Podman Demo - https://github.com/containers/Demos/tree/master/running/ReplacingDocker o    Security Demo - https://github.com/containers/Demos/tree/master/security o    https://podman.io/talks/ - Slides from a few of the talks that might prove useful. That should get you going.  Feel free to re-ping here or hit me up directly if you'd like, t On 08/15/2019 01:21 PM, Robert P. J.
