Introduction to Docker
Docker is an open-source platform that revolutionizes how we build, ship, and run applications. It packages your application with all its dependencies into standardized units called *containers*, ensuring they run consistently anywhere – from your local machine to production servers.
Docker Images & Containers
Docker images and containers are the foundation of Docker. Understanding how they work under the hood is crucial for mastering Docker.
Docker Networking
Networking in Docker allows containers to talk to each other, the host machine, and external services. Understanding Docker networking is essential for building scalable applications.
Docker Volumes & Persistent Storage
By default, Docker containers are ephemeral, meaning all data inside a container is lost once it's removed. To persist data beyond container lifecycles, Docker provides **volumes**, **bind mounts**, and **tmpfs**. This article explains these concepts and demonstrates how to use them effectively.
Docker Compose
Docker Compose is a tool that allows you to define and manage multi-container Docker applications. Instead of running each container manually with multiple **docker run** commands, you can define all services (backend, frontend, databases, etc.) in a single configuration file (**docker-compose.yml**) and manage them together.
