What is the Proxmox dev team using for making non-Debian containers?

I know dab's used for making ubuntu and debian containers. The dab source code and samples are on https://git.proxmox.com/ and the samples don't look complicated so will try dab in a pve4 vm

However that still leaves the question where the developers get all the other containers?

The reason I ask is because I want to create my own containers for templates, both Debian, Ubuntu and Centos ones.
 
Any modifications you make to these images for having unique hostnames, ssh keys and passwords removed for Proxmox? Or do you take them as they are available?
 
I often use a vanilla copy of a non-container installation and strip out all hardware-related stuff. This can be done automatically.

Recently, I started to use docker containers and convert them to LXC templates. Therefore you can use whatever you can use as a docker container to create lxc templates. Due to the docker nature of things, you can build your own templates very easily.
