I first started using Docker in October of 2018. I was pretty lost but had a lot of help from colleagues and online tutorials etc. I'm proud to say that this week I was able to:</p> <ul> <li><p>build a multi-stage docker file that creates a base image with dependencies for building a static front end with a d3.js visualization, builds that front end and data (another image), and ships it (the front end) to an nginx image for consumption</p></li> <li><p>ship the image to a remote vm and deploy it in a docker service stack with health checks. It actually works!</p></li> </ul> <p>This is a big step for me, having been clueless on docker just a few months ago, and very often confused at what to do. I was lucky enough to have good guidance and resources and feel a lot more confident at using the docker service stack.</p>
