About

Docker is a platform for developing, shipping, and running applications. Docker provides the ability to package and run an application in a container environment. Container images are lightweight units that contain everything needed to run an application. You can easily share your application with container images; everyone you share it with gets the same container image that works similarly. Container images become containers in the run time. In this project, you will learn how to create and run a container with a web application.

Graduate project

This project covers the core topics of the Introduction to Docker course, making it sufficiently challenging to be a proud addition to your portfolio.

At least one graduate project is required to complete the course.

What you'll learn

Once you choose a project, we'll provide you with a study plan that includes all the necessary topics from your course to get it built. Here’s what awaits you:

Add build instructions to the Dockerfile

Create your custom image.

Run the container from the image you have created.

Stop the container. And remove the container and image from the system.

I ...

Nice project to get some hands-on experience with lightweight containerization using a build and a run stage.
