Docker for Developers: Build, Ship, and Scale Modern Apps
Docker isn’t just for DevOps teams anymore — it’s a must-have tool for modern developers. Whether you’re building microservices, deploying full-stack apps, or running local development environments, Docker can save you hours of setup, eliminate “it works on my machine” bugs, and help you deliver faster, more reliable software.
Docker for Build, Ship, and Scale Modern Apps takes you from beginner to confident Docker user, with a practical, example-driven approach. No endless theory — just the skills you need to use Docker effectively in real-world projects.
Inside, you’ll learn how
Install and configure Docker on Windows, macOS, and Linux
Build Docker images with best practices for layering and caching
Run and manage containers with essential commands and workflows
Use Docker Compose to orchestrate multi-container applications
Persist and share data with Docker volumes
Connect and secure containers with Docker networking
Integrate Docker into CI/CD pipelines for faster, consistent deployments
Deploy Dockerized apps to the cloud and work with Kubernetes basics
Explore advanced use cases like edge computing and AI workloads
Each chapter is concise, focused, and full of hands-on examples you can try immediately. Whether you’re containerizing your first app or optimizing production deployments, you’ll find clear explanations and proven patterns to follow.
By the end of this book, you’ll not only know how to use Docker — you’ll understand why it’s become the backbone of modern software delivery.
