+# Docker
+**Docker** is a containerization platform that packages your application and its dependencies into a lightweight, portable unit called a container. Run `docker run` to start a container from an image; it starts instantly and includes everything your app needs—no "works on my machine" problems.
+An **image** is a blueprint: a layered filesystem snapshot plus metadata. A **container** is a running instance of an image, with its own isolated filesystem, network, and environment. Build images from a Dockerfile, run containers from images, and share images via a registry (Docker Hub, private registries, etc.).
+```bash
+$ docker build -t myapp .     # build an image from Dockerfile
+$ docker run myapp            # run a container from an image
+$ docker push myapp           # push image to registry
+$ docker pull myapp           # pull image from registry
+```
+Containers are ephemeral by default—data disappears when they stop. Use volumes for persistent storage, networks to link containers, and Compose to orchestrate multi-container apps.
