🌟 Why Docker for Windows? Key Benefits

✅ Cross-Platform Containers: Run Linux and Windows containers side-by-side.

✅ Lightning-Fast Performance: Leverage WSL 2 integration for near-native Linux speed.

✅ Dev-Prod Parity: Ensure apps work identically on your PC, cloud, or servers.

✅ Vast Ecosystem: Access 100,000+ pre-built images from Docker Hub (NGINX, Redis, Postgresql).

✅ Resource Efficiency: Say goodbye to bulky VMS — containers share the host kernel!

🚀 Why Watch?

Docker on Windows bridges the gap between development and production, letting you:

• Develop Apps Faster: Isolate dependencies and avoid “works on my machine” issues.
• Simplify Deployments: Package once, run anywhere (AWS, Azure, on-prem).
• Boost Collaboration: Share containers with your team via Docker Hub.
