#2791: use apptainer rather than Docker for local getting started docs
| Reporter: | Roland Haas |
| Status: | new |
| Milestone: | |
| Version: | |
| Type: | enhancement |
| Priority: | minor |
| Component: |
Apptainer (https://apptainer.org/docs/admin/main/installation.html#install-unprivileged-from-pre-built-binaries) can be installed and run without root privileges and also integrates more nicely into the system by eg. making $HOME available and running as the user’s uid in the container.
It would seem to be more suitable than docker (runs as root, files created are owned by root) for a tutorial.
