Draft notes

Welcome to Docker

You will meet Docker as a practical way to package and run software consistently for the projects you want to build.

Why it matters

A repeatable package gives you a clearer path from ‘it worked on my machine’ to something you can run again, move, or share.

Try this

Name one project you have postponed because installation or setup looked fragile, then keep it in mind as you move through the deck.

  • Focus on useful mental models, not memorizing commands.
  • Connect each example to a maker project you recognize.

Editable working notes—refine these with the presenter’s preferred examples, timing, and phrasing.

Use the previous/next controls, the slide picker, or your left and right arrow keys. This is a web viewer—nothing downloads when you open it.
