This workshop offers a comprehensive introduction to containers, covering their conceptual foundations and practical applications. Participants will explore how containers encapsulate applications and dependencies, and will gain hands-on experience with Podman and Podman Desktop. The session will illuminate the core principles and inner workings of containers, highlighting their role in modern software development. By the end of the workshop, participants will have deployed a basic application using containers, thereby gaining the knowledge and skills to get running with containers in their projects!
Designed with beginners in mind, this workshop is perfect for students and industry newcomers wanting to explore containerization and virtualization. Our objective is to empower attendees with a foundational understanding that enhances their grasp of subsequent discussions at DevConf.CZ.
