With

containerd

+

nerdctl

you need to pass the flag

--namespace <http://k8s.io|k8s.io>

to the

nerdctl build

command to make the locally built image available in the

<http://k8s.io|k8s.io>

namespace. Please refer to an example on docs here - https://docs.rancherdesktop.io/how-to-guides/hello-world-example#build-image-from-code-locally

is it default ?
