Docker is a platform that help developers to get faster, more generalized and packaged deployments and distributions for their applications.
It can be regarded as a DevOps (Developement Operations) technology, as it is aimed at easing and accelerating shipping processes and times.
Docker is cross-platform (available on Linux, Windows and MacOs) and OS-independent as its main feature is allowing developers to build isolated environments (virtual machines) in which to run other softwares without having any conflict or versioning/platform-specific problem with the local machine.
It comes as a command line tool, but also, in its Docker Desktop implementation, as a Desktop application from which developers can comfortably check Docker's status on their computer.
We will talk about downloading and getting to run Docker in our next session, but for now feel free to explore their resources on their website!🥰
