pod-buildah is a simple shell script designed to create rootless Podman containers. This tool helps you automate the compilation and building of GitHub projects, applications, kernels, or any other tasks. With pod-buildah, you gain full integration with tmux, log monitoring using Neovim, and seamless support for apt-cacher-ng across all containers.

These instructions will help you download and run pod-buildah on your system. You do not need to be a programmer to follow these steps.

Before you start, ensure you have the following:

1. Operating System: pod-buildah works best on Debian-based distributions, including Ubuntu.

2. Podman: This tool requires Podman to create and manage containers. You can install it using:

   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install podman

3. tmux: Install tmux for terminal multiplexing by running:

   sudo apt-get install tmux

4. Neovim: You also need Neovim for log monitoring:

   sudo apt-get install neovim

5. apt-cacher-ng: Make sure apt-cacher-ng is installed for caching dependencies:

   sudo apt-get install apt-cacher-ng
