Friendship ended with Debian and Docker. Now Fedora and Podman are my best friends. (discuss.tchncs.de)

Until yesterday, I didn’t even know you could use the docker images and the same docker-compose configs with Podman.

The UI you are looking at is Cockpit, which can be installed on almost any Linux Server. I have used it before but I am amazed by its integration with Podman.

Seriously, consider trying this, once.

Here's another screenshot of Cockpit:

I think so. But portainer may have more features. podman-compose is not officially developed by the team that develops Podman, so it is not exactly integrated within Cockpit. But portainer has all the options, including environment variables, etc. There are guides available for installing Portainer with Podman, but I am not sure how reliable it is.

Cockpit is not for Podman only. We can even create and manage VMs with a display, if we install the required tools. Cockpit is a tool to manage a headless server, like storage, updates, services, etc.
