Release Detailsβ
Podman 4.9.3β
π¦ Podman 4.9.3 includes key fixes for stability and reliability issues reported by our users - especially if you are using Apple silicon architecture. If you've been floundering we highly recommend updating!
Kubernetes Explorerβ
Progressively introduced in past releases as an experimental feature, we're ready to expand our capabilities to help developers transition from containers to Kubernetes. In this release we are introducing a new set of features that enable the developers to work with more Kubernetes resources, offering more granular and interactive control over your applications.
Now available in π¦ Podman Desktop is a new Kubernetes Explorer with the ability to work with Deployments, Services, Ingresses, and Routes, in addition to the existing support for Pods. For each of those resources, π¦ Podman Desktop provides real-time information about the status of resources on the cluster. From the top right of this overview page you can also click Apply YAML to create or update resources on the cluster similar to 'kubectl apply -f', and see the current connection status.
Just like with local containers or images, you can click for more details on Summary, Inspect, and Kube (YAML) pages.
See a problem? You can edit and apply changes direct from the Kube tab.
