<p>I used to use Vagrant to spin up minimal virtual machines when I needed to test code on a different distro than what I ran. Lately I've switched to <a href="https://podman.io" target="_blank">Podman</a>.</p>

<p>Install Podman with your distribution's package manager.</p>

<p>Configure it:</p>

<pre><code>
$ sudo --add-subuids 200000-265536 \
--add-subgids 200000-265536 \
$USER
</code></pre>

<p>Create a directory to share data between your container and your localhost:</p>

<pre><code>
$ mkdir data
</code></pre>

<p>Run a container, with your <strong>.&#47;data</strong> directory mapped to <strong>&#47;storage</strong> in the container:</p>

<pre><code>
$ podman run -it --volume ./data:/storage:Z busybox
</code></pre>
