This project\naims to apply the same technique for bootable host systems - using\nstandard OCI/Docker containers as a transport and delivery format\nfor base operating system updates.\n\nThe container image includes a Linux kernel (in e.g. `/usr/lib/modules`),\nwhich is used to boot.  At runtime on a target system, the base userspace is\n*not* itself running in a \"container\" by default. For example, assuming\nsystemd is in use, systemd acts as pid1 as usual - there's no \"outer\" process.\nMore about this in the docs; see below.\n\n## Status\n\nThe CLI and API are considered stable. We will ensure that every existing system\ncan be upgraded in place seamlessly across any future changes.\n\n## Documentation\n\nSee the [project documentation](https://bootc-dev.github.io/bootc/).\n\n## Versioning\n\nAlthough bootc is not released to crates.io as a library, version\nnumbers are expected to follow [semantic\nversioning](https://semver.org/) standards.  This practice began with\nthe release of version 1.2.0; versions prior may not adhere strictly\nto semver standards.\n\n## Adopters (base and end-user images)\n\nThe bootc CLI is just a client system; it is not tied to any particular\noperating system or Linux distribution. You very likely want to actually\nstart by looking at [ADOPTERS.md](ADOPTERS.md).\n\n## Community discussion\n\n- [Github discussion forum](https://github.com/containers/bootc/discussions) for async discussion\n- [#bootc-dev on CNCF Slack](https://cloud-native.slack.com/archives/C08SKSQKG1L) for live chat\n- Recurring live meeting hosted on [CNCF Zoom](https://zoom-lfx.platform.linuxfoundation.org/meeting/96540875093?password=7889708d-c520-4565-90d3-ce9e253a1f65) each Friday at 15:30 UTC.\n\nThis project is also tightly related to the previously mentioned Fedora/CentOS bootc project,\nand many developers monitor the relevant discussion forums there. In particular there's a\nMatrix channel and a weekly video call meeting for example: \u003chttps://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/bootc/community/\u003e.\n\n## Developing bootc\n\nAre you interested in working on bootc?
