Does anyone know how to upgrade to the latest Penpot version with Podman?

Edit: Figured it out! Essentially, replace any [docker-compose commands](https://help.penpot.app/technical-guide/getting-started/) with `podman-compose`.

# **To update**

Go to your `~/penpot/docker/images` folder and launch the command line.

```auto
podman-compose -f docker-compose.yaml pull

```

## **To restart with the update**

**Stop penpot:**

```auto
podman-compose -p penpot -f docker-compose.yaml down

```

**Start penpot:**

```auto
podman-compose -p penpot -f docker-compose.yaml up -d

```

**Cleanup**  
Make sure to prune your volumes and images in Podman Desktop afterwards:
