Description
Feature Description
It would be great if there were a few examples in this repo of accomplishing the same design pattern with Quadlets.
Problem It Solves
Podman Quadlets have improved security, reliability, and maintainability over docker-compose. Rootless operation, UID mapping, and systemd integration are huge wins from a server admin perspective.
Proposed Solution
To get started there's a conversion tool:
https://github.com/containers/podlet
I'm not sure in what shape the maintainers would want to see quadlet support as there's a spectrum of options, so I thought I'd start the conversation first before trying any coding or writing.
Would you be willing to work on this feature?
- Yes, I'd like to implement this feature
- I could help with parts of this feature
- No, I'm just suggesting the feature

Research direction
Review the repository's existing docker-compose examples and compare them with output from the linked Podlet conversion tool. First clarify which Quadlet patterns maintainers want to support; done means adding agreed examples that demonstrate equivalent configurations and documenting how to use them.
