In this lesson, it's essential to focus on the provided labs and instructional videos. While the idea of setting up your own local environment might be tempting, we strongly recommend that you complete the course materials first. These labs and videos offer a structured, distraction-free learning experience designed to equip you with the necessary skills step by step. Completing the structured course materials ensures a streamlined learning path and minimizes potential interruptions. This approach helps you optimize your learning and makes your time with KodeKloud more productive. ## Listing Docker Images During the labs, you'll encounter tasks such as listing Docker images on your system. Below is an example command that displays available Docker images: ```bash theme={null} $ docker images REPOSITORY TAG SIZE redis latest 105MB ubuntu latest 72.7MB mysql latest 556MB nginx latest 22.6MB alpine latest 5.61MB postgres latest 133MB kodekloud/simple-webapp-mysql latest 314MB kodekloud/simple-webapp latest 96.6MB ``` ## Running a Redis Container Once you're comfortable with the basics, you'll have the opportunity to run containers and build out your local environment. For now, in the lab environment, try running a Redis container with the following command: ```bash theme={null} $ docker run redis ``` Thank you for choosing our course.
