Chapter 9. Setting up to Develop Containerized Applications
Red Hat supports development of containerized applications based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat OpenShift and a number of other Red Hat products.

- Additionally, Red Hat Development Suite is a good choice for development of containerized applications in Java, C, and C++. It consists of Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio, OpenJDK, Red Hat Container Development Kit, and other minor components. To install DevSuite, follow the instructions in Red Hat Development Suite Installation Guide.
