In a world built by code, design lives between the lines

Design is the art of solving problems; open source makes that visible. In this video, Open Source Designer Eriol Fox dives into the pragmatic world of design and usability within the FOSS ecosystem. We discuss how product designers and user researchers are driving long-term software sustainability through accessibility and smarter design.

The fallacy of complacent distroless containers

Join us on our deep dive into Chisel: the tool that brings enterprise-grade traceability to ultra-minimal container images. In this video, we explain why Chisel was created, and how it helps address security challenges in modern container images. We cover why container images often include unnecessary software and dependencies, why building minimal distroless containers can be difficult, and how missing metadata can lead to false confidence in vulnerability scans.

What is the Open Container Initiative?

In this video, we explain the Open Container Initiative (OCI) and how open, vendor-neutral standards make containers portable and interoperable across platforms, tools, and environments. We cover what OCI is, why OCI compliance matters, and how OCI defines the core building blocks of the container ecosystem: container images, runtimes, and distribution.
