+dump.erofs and fsck.erofs
+-------------------------
+
+dump.erofs and fsck.erofs are used to analyze, check, and extract
+EROFS filesystems. Note that extended attributes and ACLs are still
+unsupported when extracting images with fsck.erofs.
+
+Container images
+----------------
+
+EROFS filesystem is well-suitably used for container images with
+advanced features like chunk-based files, multi-devices (blobs)
+and new fscache backend for lazy pulling and cache management, etc.
+
+For example, CNCF Dragonfly Nydus image service [7] introduces an
+(EROFS-compatible) RAFS v6 image format to overcome flaws of the
+current OCIv1 tgz images so that:
 
-They are still incomplete and actively under development by the
-community. But you could check them out if needed in advance.
+ - Images can be downloaded on demand in chunks aka lazy pulling with
+   new fscache backend (5.19+) or userspace block devices (5.16+);
+
+ - Finer chunk-based content-addressable data deduplication to minimize
+   storage, transmission and memory footprints;
+
+ - Merged filesystem tree to remove all metadata of intermediate layers
+   as an option;
+
+ - (e)stargz, zstd::chunked and other formats can be converted and run
+   on the fly;
+
+ - and more.
+
+Apart from Dragonfly Nydus, a native user daemon is planned to be added
+to erofs-utils to parse EROFS, (e)stargz and zstd::chunked images from
+network too as a real part of EROFS filesystem project.
