Docker Images 📷

Docker images are lightweight, standalone, executable packages that include everything needed to run a piece of software, including the code, a runtime, libraries, environment variables, and config files.

DockerHub

Docker Hub Logo

DockerHub is a cloud-based registry service that allows you to link to code repositories, build your images and test them, stores manually pushed images, and links to Docker Cloud so you can deploy images to your hosts. It provides a centralized resource for container image discovery, distribution and change management, user and team collaboration, and workflow automation throughout the development pipeline.

DockerHub offers unlimited public repositories for free, making it a popular choice for hosting Docker images.
