Pluralsight – Docker for Software Development: Docker Foundations 2025-10

Description

Docker for Software Development: Docker Foundations. This course teaches how to install Docker and perform basic tasks such as building and running containers, preparing learners to use Docker in real-world environments. Emphasizing the importance of integrated environments and simplified workflows in modern software development, this course demonstrates how to use Docker and integrate containers into existing workflows. Learners will be introduced to the basics of Docker, the ecosystem of tools, and container registries, and then learn how to install and work with core Docker tools, including Docker Desktop. It then covers how to build applications inside containers, share them in registries, and run them on production systems. Working with Docker Hub is also taught as part of this process. By the end of the course, participants will have the skills and knowledge to effectively work with Docker and containers in real-world scenarios.
