Containers bring the ability to have ready-to-use environments and in
this case complete Fedora and Debian container files are described
containing all required packages for building and testing grub2.
Once users manually build it, they can run the desired container, jump
into a setup ready for development. On the other hand, if users
prefer to use bare metal instead of a containerized environment, it is
still useful to have a file explicitly indicating the required packages.

+Container
+==========
+
+Containers bring the ability to have ready-to-use environments isolated
completely
+from the build environment. Under the 'container' folder, there are container
files
+(Containerfile.*) which describe images ready for building and testing grub2.
+
+Once users manually build it (see next section), they can run the desired
container, jump
+into a setup ready for development. On the other hand, if users prefer to use
bare metal
+instead of a containerized environment, it is still useful to have a file
explicitly
+indicating the required packages.
+
+Container usage
+================
+
+Assuming your build OS support containers, e.g. all Linux distros, install
'podman' on
+your favorite distro then build a specific image with
+
+ $ podman build -t fedora-grub -f Containerfile.fedora .
+
+or in case you prefer Debian
+
+ $ podman build -t debian-grub -f Containerfile.debian .
+
+once built, you can run/launch any of the aboven
+
+ $ podman run -it fedora-grub
+
+or
+
+ $ podman run -it debian-grub
+
+and execute the standard build/test commands inside it, e.g
+
+ # ./bootstrap
+ # ./configure
+ # ./make
+ # ./make check
