In today's world, containers revolutionized how we program and deploy applications.

Docker is the most mature, documented and with the most amazing community containerization engine.

In this post I will share my experiences with part12 of Full Stack open. I feel like the tutorial really helped to introduce me to the main concepts of Docker, that is how to build images with Dockerfile scripts and how to manage containers with Compose.

Throughout the assignments you get to work with Node, Mongo, Redis,Nginx and other images. You also learn about volumes, bind mounts, the Docker network and DNS.

My favorite part was developing directly inside a container.
This has so many benefits when working on a large project. I will consider adding Docker to my workflow.
