How To Use the Docker 1-Click Install on DigitalOcean

👁 How To Use the Docker 1-Click Install on DigitalOcean

Introduction

Docker is a platform created to help developers build, scale, and run their applications reproducibly by separating their application from their application’s infrastructure and dependencies. At its core, Docker is software that manages application processes in abstractions called containers, using operating-system-level virtualization to deliver software in self-contained images. Docker is widely used for application development and deployment.

The use case highlighted in this tutorial will fit best for those who want to use Docker and multiple containers on a single Droplet.

This tutorial will guide you through spinning up a DigitalOcean Droplet with Docker and Docker Compose pre-installed, using the DigitalOcean Docker 1-Click App. After creating your Droplet, you will be guided through other use cases and common Docker commands. Because this 1-Click Droplet is based on a standard Ubuntu 20.04 Droplet, you can follow any of our Docker tutorials on your created Droplet after you finish this guide.

The hyperlink for “Docker Compose with NGINX” (at the very end) goes to the wrong link (looks like it was copy/pasted from the one above it about Laravel). Maybe the link should be this one?
