## Release Details

### Protocol handler support
### Added start/stop/delete/restart buttons for Compose

Podman Desktop now supports protocol handling when using the terminal! If you type in `open podman-desktop:extension/redhat.openshift-local`, Podman Desktop will automatically load up to the correct extension.
In the last month we've been addind support for more Compose features. Before you were only able to control a group of containers if they were in a Pod. Now we have added the ability to control a group of Compose containers. You can now start, stop, delete and restart a group of containers launched by either `docker-compose` or `podman-compose`.

Stay tuned as we add even more features to Compose! If you have any feedback or feature requests, feel free to open an start a discussion on GitHub.

### Kubernetes context on the status bar

On the status bar, the current Kubernetes context is now shown. If there are multiple contexts, you can now pick which one to use.
When using multiple Kubernetes configurations, you may want to switch from one context to another quickly, being able to work on a different cluster all-together. We've added a feature to show the Kubernetes context on the status bar. If there are multiple contexts available, you can now click and pick which one to use.
