Docker Images

An overview of Docker images and how to download them.

What are Docker images?

Images are objects that contain everything an app needs to run. This includes an OS filesystem, the application, and all dependencies. If you work in operations, they’re similar to VM templates. If you’re a developer, they’re similar to classes.

Note: At the end of this lesson, a terminal is provided where you can run the commands.

Run the docker images command on your Docker host.
