It includes the same container development and run-time tools used to create and deploy containers for large data centers. CodeReady Containers can be used without this project, but if you want to try a self-contained and reusable container platform
installation on your local machine with OpenShift Container Platform this might just be the project for you. This project leverages CodeReady Containers, OpenShift command line tools, and a virtualization tool based on your operating system.
