Whenever Podman developers talk about its future, they always mention one topic—making it easier to test workloads with Podman and deploy them into Kubernetes. The primary way users jump between Podman and Kubernetes is by using Podman's generate kube and play kube subcommands. As the names imply, generate kube creates a YAML description of a Podman pod or container to run in Kubernetes. Conversely, the play kube subcommand allows you to run Podman pods based on a Kubernetes YAML file.
