[Container-tools] How adb and Nulecule fit together?

[Saleem Ansari]

Hi,

Now that I understand the relationship between Nulecule and ADB, I have couple of question:

 * How are these two projects related: atomic [1] and atomicapp [2] ?
 * As of now what are the components that completely describe CDK ? Is ADB a necessary and sufficient to be called as CDK ?


Alright, I will start with my understanding below ( I may be totally wrong here ):

Atomicapp is a reference implementation of Nulecule specification. However it doesn't define how to run the app itself, so I assume it is actually Atomic that will help with this task.

However from the project description of Atomic: "Atomic Run Tool for installing/running/managing container images.", it doesn't say anything specific to Atomicapp either.

I understand that the scope of both the projects, Atomic and Atomicapp isn't limited to each other. But the relationship is not clear.



What am I missing here to connect the dots ?


Thanks and regards,
Saleem
