= Provisioning Fedora CoreOS via Podman Machine

The [podman machine](https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-machine.1.html) project uses Fedora CoreOS on the backend.

This project will be particularly useful for people who want to spin up a local virtual machine using Fedora CoreOS on non-Linux platforms (e.g. MacOS X).

Please see the documentation of that project for more details.

== Using Podman Machine to test Ignition configuration

When developing Ignition (or Butane) configuration, there can be a trial-and-error process. Using local virtual machines instead of cloud resources can speed up iteration.

[source, bash]
----
podman machine init --ignition-path /path/to/config.ign
