Skillshare – Learn Docker From Scratch (2021)

Welcome to this class on Docker Essentials!

By the end of this class, you’ll know how to run containerized applications with Docker.

This hands-on course goes straight to the point without any distraction and focuses solely on how to use Docker.

The Docker project started in 2013 and became the de-facto standard for executing programs in a portable sandbox environment aka container. It’s probably one of the reasons for the high rate of cloud adoption in the industry. Learning Docker now could be the best decision of your career! If you invest your time and effort in learning these skills TODAY it will pay off greatly in the FUTURE.

Since this is intermediate Linux, before enrolling in this class you have to already master the basics of the Linux commands. Some basic knowledge of Networking, in general, is also required. Once you have a grasp on Linux and Networking Basics, you can move on to Docker.

My advice is to first check my other classes on Linux Administration published here on SkillShare: they will help you build a strong foundation of Linux.

The class projects will help you use the knowledge in a practical way and the skills you’ll learn will broaden your horizons and increase your value on the job market.
