DAY 2 DOCKER IMAGE

Hey everyone! πŸ‘‹

Today, I’m excited to share how I containerized a simple Machine Learning project using Docker. If you’re new to Docker or Machine Learning, don't worry β€” I’ll explain everything step-by-step!
When building ML projects, the environment (Python version, libraries, dependencies) matters a lot.
Docker helps you create a consistent environment that works everywhere β€” on your machine, on the cloud, and even for your teammates.

Easy to deploy anywhere.
Cleaner project structure
