Packaging software as Docker images is standard practice these days, and distributing those images, internally or to the public, means you almost certainly need a container registry. Docker Hub and the major cloud providers all offer managed registries, though the free tier, where there is one, tends to be very limited.

If you want to host your own, there are several open source registries available at the time of writing. Distribution and Harbor are the two most popular ones. Distribution is the reference implementation: it gives you push and pull, and nothing else. Harbor is a full-featured registry, including RBAC, vulnerability scanning, and a web UI; however, it requires separate PostgreSQL and Redis instances to operate, which significantly increases the complexity of installation and maintenance.

I’m introducing a new container registry — summ, a simple yet powerful registry with batteries included. The first release, 0.1.0, is out now.

I can’t believe I built my own workbench! 🔨🔩😀

In the past few years whenever I need to work on things I had to do it on my garage floor, this is very hard for my back. I decided that I need to get a workbench.

In April 2018, Eva and I visited Europe for the first time. We had 2 weeks time in total. After a long process of deciding where to go (a few months) we decided to spend 5 days in France, and the rest 9 days in Italy. This is the first part of our trip.
