CNCF ORAS

CNCF is the open source, vendor-neutral hub of cloud native computing, hosting projects like Kubernetes and Prometheus to make cloud native universal and sustainable. ORAS is a sandbox project under CNCF.

ORAS is the de facto tool for working with OCI Artifacts. It treats media types as a critical piece of the puzzle. Container images are never assumed to be the artifact in question. ORAS provides CLI and client libraries to distribute artifacts across OCI-compliant registries.

I contributed to 2 repositories of CNCF ORAS: oras and oras-www.
