WEB APPLICATION FOR DOCKER

Task Description 📄

⚙️ Task 7.1 -

📌 In this task you have to create a Web Application for Docker (one of the great Containerization Tool which provides the user Platform as a Service (PaaS)) by showing your own creativity and UI/UX designing skills to make the webportal user friendly.

📌 This app will help the user to run all the docker commands like:

👉docker images

👉docker ps

👉docker run

👉docker rm -f

👉docker exec

👉 add more if you want. (Optional)

WEB APP

A web application or "web app" is a software program that runs on a web server. Unlike traditional desktop applications, which are launched by your operating system, web apps must be accessed through a web browser.

Web apps have several advantages over desktop applications. Since they run inside web browsers, developers do not need to develop web apps for multiple platforms. For example, a single application that runs in Chrome will work on both Windows and OS X. Developers do not need to distribute software updates to users when the web app is updated. By updating the application on the server, all users have access to the updated version.

Docker is a set of platform as a service (PaaS) products that use OS-level virtualization to deliver software in packages called containers.Containers are isolated from one another and bundle their own software, libraries and configuration files; they can communicate with each other through well-defined channels.Because all of the containers share the services of a single operating system kernel, they use fewer resources than virtual machines.

Why Use Docker with a Web Application?

Most applications are simple binaries. This begs the question—why use Docker with a application? Some of the reasons to use Dockerm include:

Web applications typically have templates and configuration files. Docker helps keep these files in sync with the binary.

Docker ensures identical setups in development and production. There are times when an application works in development, but not in production. Using Docker frees you from having to worry about problems like these.

Machines, operating systems, and installed software can vary significantly across a large team. Docker provides a mechanism to ensure a consistent development setup. This makes teams more productive and reduces friction and avoidable issues during development.
