What You’ll Learn
The course reviews Docker basics and then, with the help of a sample application, walks through the lifecycle of that application with Docker. Students work on an IDE, from which they would commit code to GitHub. Once the code is committed, test cases are triggered and, if they pass, the application will be deployed in the staging environment. We will also see how the process can be extended to deploy the application in production.
