Get started

New to Chainguard? Pick the path that matches what you’re trying to do:

Build with containers

Pull and run hardened, low-CVE container images from cgr.dev. Work through a language- or service-specific example.

Build with libraries

Swap your existing dependencies for Chainguard Libraries — rebuilt from verified source, drop-in compatible. Currently available for Java, Python, and JavaScript. Start with the libraries on-ramp.

Evaluate trust

Deciding whether Chainguard is right for your organization? Review how Chainguard images are built, what guarantees they carry, and how they compare on CVEs.
