podman itself allows to play some subset of kubernetes files with the kube play command if you want to just use containers (no cluster required) https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-kube-play.1...

Podman Desktop is planning also to bring a Kubernetes cluster very easily. For now you can deploy to an existing Kubernetes cluster the Pod (set of containers that Podman provides) and you can also switch your current context from the tray icon.
