You can run containers on exozyme using **Podman**, which is basically Docker but better. Alternatively, you can use [Distrobox](Distrobox) if you would like an easier, automated way to create and manage containers. If you aren't familiar with containers, first read [this intro](https://www.ibm.com/cloud/learn/containerization).
## Run containers when logged out
By default, containers won't run when logged out. This is due to users only having access to rootless podman.
To fix this, run `loginctl enable-linger $USER`. This makes systemd run your services (including podman) even if you logged out.
## Usage
Read this [Podman tutorial](https://podman.io/get-started) to learn how to use Podman.
