Learning Docker

Course details

Docker is an open-source containerization platform. It enables developers to package applications into containers—standardized executable components combining application source code with the operating system libraries and dependencies required to run that code in any environment. In this course, Carlos Nunez introduces the basics of Docker, including its containers, Dockerfiles (or base images), and capabilities. Watch and learn how to build your own containers.
