Docker packages applications and their dependencies into portable containers, ensuring consistent environments from local development to production.
Overview
Docker uses images and containers to isolate applications with their runtime and dependencies. With Dockerfiles and docker-compose, you define reproducible environments and multi-service stacks that run identically across machines and cloud platforms.
How I Use Docker
I containerize backend services and their dependencies (databases, Redis) with Dockerfiles and docker-compose for consistent local development and reliable deployments to cloud platforms and Linux VPS environments.
Why Docker?
Docker eliminates "works on my machine" problems and makes deployments predictable. Containerized services are easy to run, scale, and reproduce, which is essential for modern backend delivery.
