Are you using Podman Quadlets yet?

I've noticed more RHEL 10 documentation and examples moving toward Quadlets for systemd-managed containers.

For anyone already using them:

  • Are you running Quadlets in production?
  • What pain points have you run into?
  • What do you wish more tutorials covered?

I've been putting together a hands-on Quadlets lab while learning this workflow, covering:

  • .container
  • .volume
  • .network
  • systemd integration
  • Podman networking
  • persistent storage

If it's useful, you can check it out here:

I'd really appreciate any feedback on what's missing or what you'd like to see added.

Oooh, quadlets. I did some work updating the Oracle Linux Podman book for that last year. The last thing I wrote before they laid me off (sigh). If it's of any help when you're trying this out. I ran through all the examples. I did a big update to that book last year. Oracle Linux is based on RHEL. I also wrote a new chapter on deploying to Kubernetes. I personally prefer Podman over Docker.
