Hi Vishnu,
When building Docker images, we need both Docker client and Docker daemon. That's why we:
docker:17
docker:dind
There is a simple example of this interaction on Docker hub hub.docker.com/_/docker without involving GitLab CI.
p.s. FYI there are alternative solutions that allow building docker images without docker client, but these are out of scope and require more effort.
