# podman - Simple debugging tool for pods and images
2-
podman is a simple client only tool to help with debugging issues when daemons such as CRI runtime and the kubelet are not responding or
3-
failing. A shared API layer could be created to share code between the daemon and podman. podman does not require any daemon running. podman
4-
utilizes the same underlying components that crio uses i.e. containers/image, container/storage, oci-runtime-tool/generate, runc or
5-
any other OCI compatible runtime. podman shares state with crio and so has the capability to debug pods/images created by crio.
2+
podman is a daemonless container runtime for managing containers, pods, and container images.
3+
It is intended as a counterpart to CRI-O, to provide low-level debugging not available through the CRI interface used by Kubernetes.
4+
It can also act as a container runtime independent of CRI-O, creating and managing its own set of containers.
