QuadletGen is a Docker Compose to Podman Quadlet converter. It takes a docker-compose.yml file and produces ready-to-run .container, .network, and .volume files, along with a conversion coverage report. The tool is described as free, private, and requiring no setup.
It accepts a pasted compose file or a built-in example. The page says the file is parsed in the browser, using js-yaml to turn YAML into services, volumes, and networks entirely client-side. A toggle lets the output target either rootless or rootful deployment by changing the destination file path and the systemd WantedBy= target in the generated [Install] section. The mapping shown for each service includes image, container_name, ports, environment, volumes, networks, depends_on, restart, command, and healthcheck.
QuadletGen runs entirely in the browser, and the page states that nothing leaves the browser during conversion. It is aimed at people converting Compose files into Podman Quadlet files, and it is presented on Dev Encyclopedia as one of its tools. The site also identifies the author as Zeeshan Tofiq, listed as a Full Stack Developer.
