This episode was a solo episode where I try my best to “demystify” Docker! A difficult task over an audio podcast, so hopefully it’s digestible! I cover the following topics…

• What are containers and images?
• Container registries
• Use cases for containers
• Interacting with Docker
• Docker Compose
• Volumes
• Building your own images
• Image layer caching
• Multi-stage Dockerfiles
• About Container Orchestrators
• Using Docker for local development
