πŸ†•πŸ’‘With Docker Init, you can initialize your projects effortlessly by creating the necessary Docker-related files with just a single command. Whether you're starting a new project or containerizing an existing one, Docker Init has got you covered.

Docker init automates the creation of essential Docker assets, such as Dockerfiles, Compose files, and .dockerignore files, based on your project's characteristics. By executing the docker init command, you can quickly containerize your projects without the hassle of manual file creation. It's a game-changer for developers who want to experiment with Docker, learn about containerization, or integrate Docker into their existing projects.

To use docker init, simply upgrade to Docker Desktop version 4.19.0 or later and run the command in your project folder. Docker init will intelligently detect your project's definitions and generate the necessary files to run your project in Docker effortlessly.
