A curated list of Docker resources
Inspired by @sindresorhus' awesome and improved by these amazing contributors.
It's now a github project because it's considerably easier for other people to edit, fix and expand on Docker using Github. Just click README.md. If this list is not complete, you can contribute to make it so.
Please, help organize these resources so that they are easy to find and understand for new comers. See how to Contribute
Docker is an open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship, and run distributed applications. Consisting of Docker Engine, a portable, lightweight runtime and packaging tool, and Docker Hub, a cloud service for sharing applications and automating workflows, Docker enables apps to be quickly assembled from components and eliminates the friction between development, QA, and production environments. As a result, IT can ship faster and run the same app, unchanged, on laptops, data center VMs, and any cloud.
