Docker Training Course for the Absolute Beginner
Introduction
A Quick Reminder
Focus on the Provided Labs and Videos
For the best learning experience, we strongly recommend following the course's labs and videos instead of experimenting with your own local environment right away. This approach minimizes distractions and ensures a clear, progressive learning path.
The labs and videos have been meticulously designed to equip you with the essential knowledge and skills you need. By working through these resources, you'll build a solid foundation before setting up your own local development environment later in the course.
For instance, when learning Docker, it's best to start by following the provided commands rather than creating your own configurations prematurely. Consider the following example:
$ docker images
REPOSITORY TAG SIZE
redis latest 105MB
ubuntu latest 72.7MB
mysql latest 556MB
nginx latest 22.6MB
alpine latest 5.61MB
nginx latest 133MB
postgres latest 314MB
kodekloud/simple-webapp-mysql latest 96.6MB
kodekloud/simple-webapp latest 84.8MB
This output displays the Docker images available in our course repository. By studying these examples, you can better understand Docker's functionality and image management.
Next, observe the straightforward command to run a Docker container using the Redis image:
$ docker run redis
By concentrating on these well-structured labs, you will be well-prepared for future exercises that will eventually allow you to experiment with your own setups.
