<p>This tutorial covers the tasks that you can perform to manage the following resources visually:</p>
<ul>
<li class="">Containers and pods</li>
<li class="">Images</li>
<li class="">Volumes</li>
<li class="">Kubernetes objects</li>
<li class="">Other resources, such as Podman machines, clusters, and CLI tools</li>
</ul>
<p>Several useful actions are available in the UI to make resource management easy.</p>
