Repo to learn Docker with examples. Contributions are most welcome.
A README-driven Docker tutorial with a handful of example folders (multi-stage Go build, a Python/Django app, a basic 'hello world' image) tied to Veeramalla's YouTube series. It's aimed squarely at people who have never used Docker and want a free, structured on-ramp.
The explanations of containers vs VMs, the Docker daemon/client split, and image layering are clear and correctly written, which is rarer than it sounds for beginner content. The multi-stage Go build example is a genuinely useful pattern to see early. Free video walkthrough for every section means you're not stuck parsing prose alone.
This is a README with a few folders attached, not a codebase — there's nothing here past absolute basics like Compose, networking beyond the single markdown file, health checks, or image security scanning. The python-web-app example has __pycache__ and a db.sqlite3 committed to git, which is exactly the kind of habit a Docker tutorial should be teaching people not to do. No updates since January 2025 despite the size of the audience, so nothing reflects newer Docker/Buildx features. Forks (14.5k) outnumbering stars (7.4k) suggests most usage is people cloning it to follow along in a course rather than using it as a reference afterward.
