Run Your First Docker Container — Hello World & Beyond | Docker #3
🐳 Time to get your hands dirty — in this video we go straight to the terminal and run real Docker containers from scratch.
No theory. Just commands, output, and understanding what's actually happening.
✅ What you'll learn:
→ docker run — how it works and what the output means
→ -d flag — run containers in the background (detached mode)
→ -p flag — map ports between your machine and the container
→ --name flag — stop relying on random auto-generated names
→ -it flag — get an interactive shell inside a running container
→ --rm flag — auto-delete containers when they stop
→ docker ps and docker ps -a — see what's running (and what's not)
→ docker stop — stop a docker container
→ docker start — start a docker container
⚡ Every concept is shown live in the terminal — no slides.
