The Dev Perspective
Learn how to clone an app from GitHub, containerize it using Docker, and run it as a container.
Containers are all about applications. You’ll complete the following steps in this lesson:
- Clone an app from a GitHub repository. We’ll use this repository to demonstrate the cloning process
- Inspect the app’s Dockerfile.
- Containerize the app.
- Run the app as a container.
Running commands
Run the following command to make a local clone of the repo. This will copy the application code to your machine so you can containerize it in a future step. You’ll need the git
CLI for this to work.
