Summary

In this chapter, you learned how Docker can be used to solve common development issues, including the dreaded "It works on my machine" problem. We also presented an introduction to the most commonly used Docker CLI commands that you will use on a daily basis. We closed out this chapter by looking and how to handle persistent data for a container and customizing container networking.

In the next chapter, we will cover why, and how, containers use persistent data. We will explain each data type that can be attached to a container, including volumes, bind mounts, and tmpfs.
