Containers have revolutionized how we develop and deploy applications. However, managing them on your desktop can be a hassle. Podman Desktop is a free and open-source tool that lets you manage containers and Pods using a graphical user interface. In this post, you will learn how to get started with Podman Desktop.

Docker Desktop is designed for developers working on macOS and Windows. It offers a user-friendly interface for running Docker containers. It uses a lightweight virtual machine (VM) with a Linux kernel in the background so that you can run Linux containers on non-Linux systems. Docker Desktop does a great job hiding all the aspects of the VM under the hood so that Docker containers appear to be running natively on your host computer. Docker Desktop received an update a few days ago, and in this post, we will discuss what's new in Docker Desktop 4.28.

OpenSSL is an open-source library and a command-line tool that helps admins and developers perform various cryptographic tasks, such as generating key pairs, certificate signing requests (CSR), verifying certificates, encrypting and decrypting data, identifying certificate information, verifying file integrity and much more. In this post, you will learn how to convert TLS certificates into different formats with OpenSSL.

You can manage Docker images and containers directly within Visual Studio Code (VS Code) with Microsoft's Docker extension. This article walks you through adding Docker files to a Workspace, creating a containerized application environment, and explains how to build and run Docker containers directly from the VS Code interface.

This post will guide you in debugging containerized apps running in Docker using Visual Studio (VS) Code.
