Docker

This is the documentation for an Introduction to Docker for Redapt's "Docker Workshop".

by Jerry Meisner and Christoph Champ for Redapt, Inc. (August 2018)

Docker is an open-source project that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers.

Docker containers wrap up a piece of software in a complete filesystem that contains everything it needs to run: code, runtime, system tools, system libraries – anything you can install on a server. This guarantees that it will always run the same, regardless of the environment it is running in. Docker.com

NOTE: This document assumes you already have Docker installed. If you do not already have Docker installed, please use the directions found here (note: only for Linux).
